Sunday saw high-based showers and thunderstorms as an upper-level shortwave<\/span> moved across the state. Precipitation was mainly confined to along and north of I-70, save for an isolated<\/span> low-precipitation supercell that developed mid-afternoon in Kit Carson County and tracked south-southeastward. Severe weather was confined to the easternmost tier of Colorado counties, with hail being the predominant hazard reported yesterday. The aforementioned supercell lasted for several hours and produced hail up to 2” diameter as well as a 63-mph thunderstorm wind gust near Lamar; the storm prompted eight severe thunderstorm<\/span> warnings as well as one tornado warning<\/span> north of Lamar, although no tornadoes were reported. The only other severe weather reported yesterday was a thunderstorm wind gust of 54 mph in the northeast corner of the state near Julesburg. Check out these photos of the supercell from a storm chaser as it neared the town of Walsh:<\/p>\n Photogenic front and back of this “dusty” #supercell<\/a> in SE CO near Walsh. Fun chase yesterday. 🙂 #cowx<\/a> #wxtwitter<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/uomMfrB8sc<\/a><\/p>\n — Adrian Leyser (@TheNimbus) June 6, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
