— MODERATE<\/strong> flood threat for parts of Northeast Plains that received heavy rainfall yesterday<\/em>
— LOW<\/strong> flood threat for parts of the Northeast Plains<\/em><\/p>\n

The broad, low-pressure trough<\/span> will continue to support scattered<\/span> shower and storm chances across Colorado, as seen in the water vapor image below. For the vast majority of areas, this will be nuisance variety rainfall because low-level moisture has dropped over the past 24-hours. The only region of concern today is once again across the eastern Plains. A disturbance located across western Colorado will rapidly move east-northeast today. As it clips the northeast corner of the state, plenty of instability from widespread<\/span> sunshine will combine with southeasterly moist flow to produce thunderstorms in the area. A Low flood threat is in place for parts of the region for isolated<\/span> flash flooding<\/span>. However, Moderate flood threat is in place for parts of Weld County and parts of Kit Carson and Cheyenne counties due to the high antecedent rainfall and thus high runoff from any additional rain that falls. For everyone else, enjoy a generally pleasant start to the Labor Day weekend!<\/p>\n
