Summary:
Upper-level ridging and a drying atmosphere suppressed nearly all thunderstorm potential yesterday, leading to a sunny and seasonably hot day across Colorado. A couple of isolated thunderstorms tried to develop over the mountains, but were quickly squashed and led to very little precipitation. Elsewhere, the “storm of the day,” if you will, occurred over Logan County in northeast Colorado; it produced a couple reports of 1-1.5 inch hail and brief light-to-moderate rainfall.
No flash flooding occurred yesterday.
