Rain continued across the state for the first half of the day on Thursday, albeit less widespread<\/span> than on Wednesday; dry air began filtering in by late afternoon and clearing out the showers and storms. Many of the same regions experienced the highest precipitation totals, including the San Juan\/Central Mountains and Southwest Slope, where QPE<\/span> data suggests fairly widespread<\/span> totals of 0.50-1.00”. These estimates are confirmed by rain gauge observations, including:<\/p>\n • 0.95” south of Durango Other regions that saw some of the heaviest precipitation totals include the Southeast Mountains southeastward across the Raton Ridge, where QPE<\/span> data suggests similar totals of 0.50-1.00”. Rain gauge coverage is sparse, but these estimates are also confirmed by observations, including 0.91” south of Trinidad and 0.60” near Custer.<\/p>\n Elsewhere across the state, totals were light, with generally T-0.25” across the Grand Valley\/Northwest Slope\/Northern Mountains and T-0.15” across the Front Range\/Urban Corridor\/Palmer Ridge\/Plains.
