Quiet weather day across Colorado with the exception of a few isolated<\/span> thunderstorms over the Palmer Ridge in the afternoon. Dry southwest flow limited moisture availability for all storms that formed yesterday, and they were outflow<\/span> dominant. Most storms that fired over the mountains quickly evaporated in the dry air. As expected the temperature\/dew point<\/span> spread produced gusty winds and limited rainfall for the storms that were able to move into the adjacent plains. The ASOS station at Colorado Springs airport reported a gust of 32 mph with radar rainfall estimates up to 0.5 inches in the area. The largest rainfall total from yesterday was near Pueblo where radar rainfall was estimated to be around 1 inch. Thunderstorms attempted to move into the far eastern plains, but they were not able to quite make it to the unstable<\/span> environment before sundown. All storm action ended by 9:30PM on Thursday.<\/p>\n Flooding was not reported on Thursday.

\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
