Summary:
With the upper-level trough passing overhead, the morning was dotted with scattered showers across northern portions of the state. As the trough progressed eastward, subsidence and dry air filtered in behind it, leading to partly sunny skies and mainly dry conditions. The exception was over the Northern Mountains, Central Mountains, and Front Range regions where orographic effects combined with residual moisture to create very light showers during peak heating in the afternoon. 24-hour rainfall totals were miniscule, all coming in lower than 0.05 inches according to CoCoRaHS observers.
No flash flooding was reported yesterday.
