Issue Date: Friday, May 4th, 2018
\nIssue Time: 9:30 AM MDT<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/h3>\n

The exiting low-pressure system provided one more day of scattered<\/span> rainfall across the state, even allowing portions of the Southeast Mountains, Raton Ridge, and Southeast Plains to pick up on some much needed, even if too little, moisture. Elsewhere, the Northeast Plains and Urban Corridor continued to be the big winners of the state, as the best moisture and upper-level support existed there. A swath of 0.5-1.0 inch of rainfall, with locally higher amounts, impacted the Urban Corridor from Denver to the WY state line.<\/p>\n

Out west over the High Country, scattered<\/span> showers\/thunderstorms dotted the higher elevations and lower valleys, with snow levels meandering between 7000 and 8000 feet. Heavy snow was reported across the higher elevations, with some locations picking up on more than 6” of snow.<\/p>\n

Flash flooding<\/span> was not reported yesterday. For a look at precipitation estimates in your area, please see our State Precipitation Map below.<\/p>\n

\nThe map below shows radar-estimated, rainfall gage-adjusted Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE<\/span>) across Colorado. The map is updated daily during the operational season (May 1 – Sep 30) by 11AM. The following six layers are currently available: 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour total precipitation, as well as maximum 1-hour, 2-hour and 6-hour precipitation over the past 24 hour period (to estimate where flash flooding<\/span> may have occurred). The accumulation ending time is 6AM of the date shown in the bottom right corner. Also shown optionally are fire burn areas since 2012. The home button in the top left corner resets the map to the original zoom.\n

Note: We have identified a possible underestimation in QPE<\/span> over the southwest part of the state. We are working to on this issue, and will provide an update as soon as possible.<\/span>
