\nIssue Time: 9:05 AM MDT<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/h3>\n

As forecasted, yesterday was calm as hot and dry conditions settled into the state. There were a handful of isolated<\/span> showers in the Grand Valley and Southwest Slope overnight and early morning, but only Trace<\/span> – 0.05 inches was reported. The main weather story was temperatures kicking back up after a cooler Friday and Saturday. The Southeast Plains reached over 100 degrees in La Junta, Lamar, and Granada. <\/p>\n

No flooding was reported on Sunday. On Friday, the USGS published a storymap<\/a> detailing the many debris flows that occurred on the Grizzly Creek burn scar through Glenwood Canyon after this summer’s heavy rain, as well as some historical flows after fires in 1994 and 2002. <\/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 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.\n<\/div>\n
