Tuesday began with an early morning, weak cold-front and associated low-pressure situated in Northeast Colorado – Southwest Nebraska, which pushed eastward out of the state with scattered<\/span>, light rainfall across the Northeast Plains. By early afternoon, thunderstorms began filling in at the high elevations in the Northern, Central, Front Range, and San Juan Mountains, and then filled in to the Northwest and Southwest Slopes and Grand Valley as the afternoon progressed. The moisture just kept coming and continued to rain off and on for most the day in the southwest, bringing joy to many CoCoRaHS<\/span> observers based on remarks on their daily reports. As rainfall picked up, flood warnings and advisories were issued across the state, in addition to severe thunderstorm<\/span> warnings for damaging winds and large hail. Wind gusts between 45-63 mph were ultimately recorded from storms across the Northwestern and Southwestern Slopes, Grand Valley, and Central Mountains. Many of the flash flood<\/span> warnings were for previous burn areas. These include: The Decker burn scar and Poncha Pass – which closed earlier this month from debris flows, the Grizzly Creek burn scar – which closed I-70 in Glenwood Canyon to traffic again for several hours<\/a>, and the Hayden Pass burn scar. Thankfully no additional flooding was reported on these scars.<\/p>\n Some notable rainfall totals across the Southwest Slope and San Juan Mountains:<\/p>\n Rainfall totals along the Urban Corridor, Palmer Ridge, Eastern Plains were less than 0.25 inches aside from a few cells, including a line of storms along the I-76 corridor on the Northeast Plains. The day ended with a general clearing out overnight, until another late night-early morning system entered the state from the southwest, bumping up Southwest Slope and Grand Valley accumulations with additional modest rainfall.<\/p>\n For rainfall estimates in your area, check out the State Precipitation Map below!<\/p>\n Issue Date: Wednesday, July 14, 2021 Issue Time: 9:45 AM MDT Summary: Monsoon<\/span> season has arrived, bringing with it widespread<\/span> rainfall, even heavy at times, to much of the state!
