\nIssue Time: 10:45AM MDT<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/h3>\n

A calmer day yesterday compared to Monday, but there were still reports over severe thunderstorms<\/span> and flash flooding<\/span> near Colorado Springs. Storms over the area were driven primarily by upslope flow, peaking in intensity by 6PM. Reports to the NWS<\/span> indicated 1 inch diameter hail over Teller Counter near Divide<\/span>, with radar deriving from 1 to 2 inches of rain over the warned area between 5 and 6 PM. No flash flooding<\/span> was reported in the area but CoCoRaHS<\/span> stations reported up to 0.68 inches of rain.  Temperatures increased higher than expected over the eastern plains, causing rainfall rates to be weaker than forecast over the Southeast Mountains due to reduced moisture. A brief thunderstorm over Morgan County produced up to 0.75 inches of rain, but the environment was unable to sustain the storm for long.<\/p>\n

Moderate to heavy rain was also reported over the San Juan Mountains and Southwest Slope as moisture increased from the southwest. A CoCoRaHS<\/span> station in Montezuma County recorded 0.78 inches of rain yesterday, but the thunderstorms were unable to cross the ridge to reach the 416 burn area. Precipitation in La Plata County was limited to less than 0.2 inches. Alamosa County had multiple reports of rain over the San Luis Valley, with CoCoRaHS<\/span> reporting up to 0.2 inches in the city of Alamosa.<\/p>\n

\nThe map below shows radar-estimated, rainfall gage-adjusted Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE<\/span>) across Colorado. The map is updated daily during the operational season (May 1 – Sep 30) by 11AM. The following six layers are currently available: 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour total precipitation, as well as maximum 1-hour, 2-hour and 6-hour precipitation over the past 24 hour period (to estimate where flash flooding<\/span> may have occurred). The 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour total precipitation contain bias corrections that are not disaggregated into the hourly estimates, so there will likely be some differences. The accumulation ending time is 7AM of the date shown in the bottom right corner. Also shown optionally are vulnerable fire burn areas (post 2012), which are updated throughout the season to include new, vulnerable burn areas. The home button in the top left corner resets the map to the original zoom.
