Issue Date: Sunday, August 4, 2019

Summary:<\/h3>\n

The Wet Mountains (a portion of the Southeast Mountains) are holding up to their name this season. More moderate to heavy rain over the area caused multiple Areal Flood Advisories to be issued yesterday afternoon and early evening. Flash flooding<\/span> was reported to the NWS<\/span> over the Spring Creek burn area, with a rock slide closing CR 572. Heavy rainfall of 1.07 inches fell over 70 minutes near Crestone in eastern Saguache County. Multiple CoCoRaHS<\/span> stations reported up to 1.1 inches of rain in eastern Saguache and Alamosa Counties. Heavy rainfall avoided most of the other burn areas over the Southeast Mountains and San Juan Mountains. Up to 0.25 inches were reported over the northern edge of the 416 burn area, with most rainfall falling to the southeast in La Plata and Archulta Counties. 1.03 inches was recorded by a CoCoRaHS<\/span> station to the east of Pagosa Springs. Radar derived up to 0.5 inches over the San Juan Mountains and Southwest Slope. Most other areas of the state remained dry, with trace<\/span> amounts reported over the northern Front Range and Northwest Slope.<\/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.
