— Flooding is NOT<\/strong> expected today<\/em>
— Elevated fire threat for southwest and south-central Colorado<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

It is a “severe clear” morning across Colorado today, with not a cloud in sight statewide. A dry atmosphere continues to dominate the state, though moisture levels have come up slightly over the past 24 hours. Yet, precipitable water<\/span> values remain below 0.5 inches or lower. The tail end of yesterday’s upper-level disturbance will continue affect the state today, mainly through some weak mid-level dynamics and cool temperatures aloft. An isolated<\/span> shower or perhaps even a weak thunderstorm is possible for the northern half of the state, perhaps rewarding a lucky location with a few tenths of an inch of water. However, flooding is not expected today.<\/p>\n

An elevated fire danger continues today, this time for southwest and south-central Colorado as relative humidity values are expected to drop below 15% through the afternoon. Fortunately, wind speeds will be lower than on Tuesday, which will at least slow the spread of any fire, should one develop.<\/p>\n
