Thursday was quite a dry day across the state, with most of Colorado receiving no rainfall. The Southwest Slope and a few locations across the Front Range were the only areas to receive any precipitation. In the southwest, observations were mostly under 0.1”, but a few higher observations include 0.78” near the Utah border, 0.41” in Pagosa Springs and 0.27” near Cortez. A flood advisory was issued in La Plata county from about 3:00 – 5:00 PM, but no flooding was reported.
As mentioned above, most areas along the Front Range and Urban Corridor saw very little to no rainfall. There were a few observations, in Fort Collins and Dumont, that noted up to 0.12” at their locations, but most other scattered reports came in under 0.05”.
