Summary:<\/h3>\n

With a gradual drying of the atmosphere, rainfall coverage and intensity took a step downward on Sunday. Nonetheless, scattered<\/span> showers and thunderstorms were still abundant over certain regions like the Front Range, Central Mountains, San Juan Mountains and Southeast Mountains. Although storms were higher based, compared to Saturday, they were still able to deliver some short-term heavy rainfall. Amounts up to 0.40 inches, typically over a 10-15 minute period, were common mainly east of the Continental Divide<\/span>. There were two areas that got more: first, a very isolated<\/span> storms in Fremont County dropped just over 1.0 inch in less than 1 hour. A CoCoRaHS<\/span> gage reported 1.07 inches this morning, which appears to be in the most intense part of the storm. Second, in Baca County, right along the Kansas border, a few slow moving cells dropped 1.0 to 1.5 inches of estimate rainfall. In both cases of the heavier rainfall, the areal coverage was too low to cause any flooding concerns.<\/p>\n

In other news, the state enjoyed its last day of near normal temperatures on Sunday as a prolonged intense heat wave is expected to start today.<\/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.
