— Flooding is NOT<\/strong> expected today<\/em><\/p>\n

The long advertised drying has finally occurred in earnest across Colorado overnight. Dewpoint temperatures have dropped anywhere from 5F-25F statewide, with the most significant drying over northern Colorado. Precipitable Water<\/span> (PW<\/span>) has dropped below 0.5 inches at both Denver and Grand Junction. As shown in the water vapor image, below, northwesterly flow around a strengthening Four Corners ridge will continue to stream very dry air into the state. Seasonable temperatures are expected this afternoon, despite the ample sunshine. A bit of smoky air could make it into northern Colorado this afternoon, but heavier smoke concentrations are expected to hold off until Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n

An isolated<\/span> shower or weak storm cannot be ruled out over southeastern Colorado, mainly in Baca County as well as the southernmost portion of the Southeast Mountains. However, with strong steering winds and limited boundary layer<\/span> moisture, only light accumulation would occur if a storm did manage to pop. Thus, flooding is NOT expected today.<\/p>\n
