Issue Date: Friday, July 10th, 2020
\nIssue Time: 11AM MDT<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/h3>\n

An overnight outflow boundary<\/span> moved into eastern Colorado Wednesday night, which returned a large amount of low-level moisture to the Northeast Plains. It was quite muggy over the eastern plains yesterday with dew points<\/span> reaching around 60F (border counties)! There was capping aloft, so afternoon storms weren’t widespread<\/span> over the eastern plains, and took a while to pop. However, outflow boundaries<\/span> from the initial storms (6PM) help trigger additional storms back west that lasted through about 3AM. Storm cores were relatively small, but several Severe Thunderstorm<\/span> Warnings were issued. Storms around the metro area (Adams and Arapahoe Counties) produced hail from 1 inch to 2.5 inch in diameter. They also produced 60 mph wind gusts near Brighton, CO, which caused some broken branches and flying debris. As far as rainfall, the QPE<\/span> likely has a little hail contamination today, which will inflate the totals. A CoCoRaHS<\/span> station near Strasburg recorded 0.80 inches for the 24-hour period, and an ALERT gage at DIA recorded 0.39 inches. There was a gage near Todd Creek that recorded 1.27 inches, but no other gages around this high of total. It is likely this is contaminated. All in all, there were some powerful little storms. Flooding was not reported as of this morning.<\/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.
