Issue Date: Tuesday, June 16th, 2020
\nIssue Time: 10AM MDT<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/h3>\n

The scorching June heat continued across Colorado on Monday, with the following notable high temperatures: 101F at Lamar, 99F at Wray and 99F at Pueblo. Since June 1st, parts of eastern Colorado have averaged 6-10F above normal, with lower departures but still above average elsewhere across the state.<\/p>\n

With enough boundary layer<\/span> moisture, a few showers and storms formed mainly across the Sangre de Cristo mountains and moved eastward. With very low humidity below the cloud base, it was expectedly difficult to get rain to the ground. Nonetheless, radar estimates suggest up to 0.1 inch fell over lucky areas. An isolated<\/span> storm southeast of Kim (Las Animas County) produced up to 0.5 inches per radar estimates, with a CoCoRaHS<\/span> report of 0.33 inches. Flooding was not reported on Monday.<\/p>\n

As expected, the higher elevation snowpack is close to being gone. However, the famous (to us, at least!) Tower SNOTEL site in the North Platte River valley is still measuring 10.1 inches of Snow Water Equivalent as of this morning. But interestingly, this is well below the normal value of 18.3 inches for the date.<\/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.
