As the upper-trough<\/span> pushed eastward, westerly flow aloft overspread the state from the west, acting to keep the moisture plume from former-Hurricane Newton at bay. The mid-level moisture did, however, create a mix of sun and clouds for Colorado, with most areas experiencing completely dry conditions. Westerly flow in the low-levels also fought against upslope flow from the east, resulting in a dry line across eastern Colorado. A couple showers\/weak thunderstorms percolated during the evening and into the overnight hours due, in part, to weak support aloft. Generally speaking, rainfall totals from any activity was fairly minimal, with rain rates on the light-to-moderate end of the scale.<\/p>\n For a statewide look at 24-hour precipitation totals, please take a look at the Storm Total Precipitation map below.<\/p>\n
