<\/a><\/p>\nPW<\/span> at Denver was measure at 0.54 inches with a similar moisture profile to Grand Junction. One small difference was that there was a little bit better moisture measured in the boundary layer<\/span>. This remaining moisture is expected to mix out from west to east through this afternoon as another surface Low develops over the Northeast Plains. This means that isolated<\/span>, weak storms that do develop with the residual moisture over the Front Range and push into the Urban Corridor should produce only limited rainfall. Gusty outflow<\/span> winds will likely attend the storms as well.<\/p>\nAn area of stronger storms is anticipated to develop over the eastern plains along a dry line this afternoon. It is likely that the dry line sets up just west of the eastern Colorado border, which should constrain the areal impact of the storms. That also means that the richer surface moisture is likely to be located east of our border, limiting the heavy rainfall potential. Additionally, the storms are forecast to move at 25-30 mph, so between these two factors, rain rates are expected to remain under flood threat criteria. Therefore, flooding is NOT expected today.<\/p>\n

Zone-Specific Forecasts:<\/strong><\/h3>\nNortheast Plains & Southeast Plains:<\/strong><\/h4>\nStronger storms will develop this afternoon along a dry line as some mid-level energy moves through the flow to help kick the storms off. It is possible that the dry line sets up just east of the state, leaving the border counties rainless. There is less of a severe threat today, and if thunderstorms fire over the eastern border counties, they should quickly move to the east. Max 1-hour rain rates up to 1 inch along with small hail and gusty outflow<\/span> winds will be possible under the stronger storms. Flooding is NOT expected.<\/p>\nPrimetime: 2:30PM to 7PM<\/p>\n
Front Range, Northern Mountains, Central Mountains, Northwest Slope, Urban Corridor & Palmer Ridge:<\/strong><\/h4>\nIsolated<\/span> storms are forecast to develop mostly north of I-70 today into tonight. A second round of rainfall and cloud cover is likely over the Northwest Slope and Northern Mountains overnight into tomorrow morning. Over the Northwest Slope, only light rainfall is expected today with more notable totals by morning (up to 0.15 inches). Over the Front Range, Northern Mountains and Urban Corridor 30-minute rain rates up to 0.20 inches are possible. Flooding is NOT forecast.<\/p>\nPrimetime: 2PM to Ongoing<\/p>\n
Southeast Mountains, Raton Ridge, San Luis Valley, Southwest Slope, Grand Valley & San Juan Mountains:<\/strong><\/h4>\nRainfall is not anticipated over these zones today, so flooding is NOT expected. Afternoon high temperatures should reach into the upper 80Fs across the lower elevations and Raton Ridge, 80F for the SLV and 70Fs for the mountain valleys.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
