Drier air attempted a takeover yesterday, leading to a downtick in the number of showers\/storms overall. During the afternoon and evening, the Urban Corridor, Palmer Ridge, and Northeast Plains regions were most active, with a few stronger storms producing periods of moderate-to-heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and lightning. No severe storm reports were received from this activity. Elsewhere, mainly over the higher terrain, isolated<\/span>-to-widely scattered<\/span> coverage of showers\/weak thunderstorms produced light-to-moderate rainfall and gusty winds. The lone severe storm report from yesterday was a 60 mph thunderstorm wind gust, recorded 2 miles SE of Craig (Moffat County).<\/p>\n Overnight and into this morning, a new moisture surge and associated disturbance from the southwest kicked off isolated<\/span>-to-scattered<\/span> showers across southwestern and western Colorado. Most of this activity is producing light showers, but locally heavier rain is likely occurring underneath thunderstorms.<\/p>\n No flash flooding<\/span> was reported.
