NO FLOOD THREAT IS FORECAST.<\/em><\/p>\n

The water vapor image below tells the main story of today’s forecast as westerly flow aloft has continued to transport drier air into Colorado. The drier air, along with no disturbances to be found, will lead to a significant downtick in showers\/thunderstorms as compared to the past couple of days. However, sufficient instability and moisture will remain for the production of isolated<\/span>-to-widely scattered<\/span> showers\/storms across the following regions: Northeast Plains, Urban Corridor, Palmer Ridge, Front Range, Central Mountains, Southeast Mountains, San Juan Mountains, Raton Ridge, and Southeast Plains.<\/p>\n

Due to the overall reduction in deep moisture, especially in more flood susceptible areas, no flood threat is forecast. A couple of strong-to-severe storms will develop over the plains, but observed\/forecast soundings suggest more of a damaging wind threat than heavy rain. Temperatures will rise a couple of degrees for most locations today, with the biggest jump expected across northeastern Colorado.<\/p>\n
