Summary:
Subtropical moisture increased across most locations yesterday, as the upper-level high pressure system remained anchored in a favorable position. That same high pressure, however, helped to limit the effects of the moisture it provided; most storms remained over/near the higher terrain, mainly across the southern half Colorado. A few storms were able to work over the adjacent lower elevations of the Urban Corridor and Southeast Plains, producing bouts with brief moderate-to-heavy rainfall.
There weren’t any severe storm reports from yesterday, and no flash flooding was observed. Please excuse the static 24-hour precipitation map; we are experiencing interactive map issues this morning,
