MESSAGE 1’S HAVE BEEN ISSUED EFFECTIVE UNTIL 9:00 PM
Message 1’s have been issued for the entire District effective
until 9:00pm as the threat for heavy rainfall with the potential for
severe storms across the District this afternoon and evening.
The best chance for any shower/thunderstorm activity within the
District will be between now-8pm with a few lingering showers possible
through midnight. The best chance for heavy rainfall will be
throughout the entire message times. Storm motions will be nearly
non-exsistant with pulse like thunderstorms producing some longer
lasting moderate to heavy rain. Outflow boundaries will also produce
additinal erratic storm movement which will only increase chances for
heavy rainfall through the afternoon and into the evening.
Lack of upper-level support suggest slow moving storms with a low
chance of severe weather today, mainly gusty winds 60+ mph and hail up
to 1.0” in diameter likely favoring the plains areas of the
district. Severe storms will also contain isolated heavy rainfall with
the largest threat being stationary heavy rainfall creating a quick
0.5-1.0” in 10-15 minutes.
Skies will clear this evening and overnight as temperatures drop into
the mid to upper 50s in the plains and low to mid 50s along the
foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers will produce
rainfall of a 0.10”-0.50” total in 10-30 minutes. Moderate to
strong showers have the potential to produce rainfall of
0.50”-1.50” total in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Strong stationery, or training of thunderstorms
has the potential to produce up to 2.25” in under 60 minutes.

-------------------------
Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
Slightly cooler than seasonable temperatures today with another chance
for afternoon and evening showers and isolated thunderstorms.
High-pressure starts to build today as temperatures struggle to
reach 80 degrees this afternoon. Dew points currently in the 50s and
will likely hold during the day today. This will enhance the threat of
brief heavy rainfall during the afternoon and early evening before
skies gradually clear through the overnight tonight.
The best chance for moderate to heavy shower/thunderstorm activity
within the District will be between 2-8pm with a few lingering showers
possible through midnight. The best chance for heavy rainfall will be
during the initial round of storms, with storm intensities decreasing
after sunset. Storm motions will be minimal, with most storms behaving
in a pulse up manner with little to no actual movement, leading to an
increased chance for isolated heavy rainfall within the District. A
low chance remains for severe weather today, mainly for gusty winds of
60+ mph and hail up to 1.0” in diameter, favoring areas east of I-25
at this time.
Skies will gradually clear overnight and into daybreak Monday as
temperatures drop into the mid to upper 50s on the plains with upper
40s to around 50 degrees along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers and isolated
thunderstorms will produce a 0.05-0.30” total in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate to strong/severe shower/thunderstorm will produce
0.30-0.60” total in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong, stationary thunderstorm, or training of
thunderstorm cells will have the potential to produce up to 1.20”
total in under 60 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Minimal overall change Monday as high temperatures
remain in the low to mid 80s. A continued chance for afternoon and
early evening showers/thunderstorms, with a slight chance some of
those storms produce brief heavy rainfall, likely keeping a LOW chance
for Messages. Conditions start to dry out Tuesday with just a typical
chance for springtime afternoon showers/isolated thunderstorms.
Wednesday is expected to be even drier with minimal, if any, chance
for precipitation at this time across the District.

MESSAGE 1’S WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 8:00 PM
Message 1’s will be allowed to expire at 8pm as the threat of
heavy rain has come to an end.
Stronger storms that formed just outside of the District have moved
east at this time, with only lingering light showers moving off the
foothills, favoring northern portions of the District. Storm motions
continue to move between 20-30mph helping limit point rainfall
amounts. Atmospheric conditions will remain capped this evening and
through the overnight hours, supporting little to no additional
chances for precipitation once these residual showers/isolated
thunderstorms move through the District. Skies will gradually clear
through the rest of the evening with clear skies expected during the
overnight.
Overnight lows will drop into the mid to upper 50s on the plains with
upper 40s to around 50 degrees along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: A few lingering showers will
have potenial to produce T-0.10" total in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: In the event an isolated stronger shower or
thunderstorm develops, 0.10"-0.30” total is possible in 10-30
minutes.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
Cooler today with a better chance for afternoon and early evening
showers/isolated thunderstorms.
Westerly flow aloft will dominate over the region today, leading to
warm and dry conditions this morning. Dew points currently around 50
degrees will likely hold during the day today, likely enhancing the
threat for brief heavy rainfall during the afternoon and early evening
before skies gradually clear through the later evening.
The best chance for any shower/thunderstorm activity within the
District will be between 1-7pm with a few lingering showers possible
through 9pm. The best chance for heavy rainfall will be during the
initial round of storms, with storm intensities decreasing into the
evening hours. Storm motions will be west to east between 15-20mph
which will also limit point rainfall amounts. Good upper-level support
suggests at least a moderate chance for severe weather today, mainly
for gusty winds 60+ mph and hail up to 1.0” in diameter. Severe
storms will also contain isolated heavy rainfall with the largest
threat being a quick 0.5” in 10-15min rather than any long-lasting
heavy rainfall.
Skies will gradually clear later this evening with dry conditions
expected through the overnight as temperatures drop into the mid to
upper 50s on the plains with upper 40s to around 50 degrees along the
foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers and isolated
thunderstorms will produce a 0.05-0.30” total in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate to strong/severe shower/thunderstorm will produce
0.30-0.60” total in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong, stationary thunderstorm, or training of
thunderstorm cells will have the potential to produce up to 1.20”
total in under 60 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Similar conditions remain in place on Sunday. However,
slightly less overall moisture will decrease storm potential slightly
across the I-25 corridor. The timing of storm chances will once again
be in the early afternoon, lasting into the early evening before any
shower activity clears out for the rest of the evening and overnight.
Depending on the amount of residual moisture from today will dictate
the threat level tomorrow with at least a LOW chance for Messages at
this time. Minimal overall change Monday as high temperatures remain
in the low to mid 80s. A continued chance for afternoon and early
evening showers/thunderstorms, with a slight chance some of those
storms produce brief heavy rainfall, likely keeping a LOW chance for
Messages.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
Hot today with a slight chance for high based showers/isolated
thunderstorms this afternoon and evening.
West to northwesterly flow aloft will continue to dominate today,
leading to hot and mostly dry conditions this afternoon and into the
evening. Dew points will likely mix out during the day today, dropping
into the mid to upper 30s, effectively limiting precipitation during
the day today as most rainfall will likely struggle to reach the
surface.
The best chance for any shower activity within the District this
afternoon will be between 1-8pm with a few lingering showers possible
through midnight. Storm motions will be west to east between 10-15mph
which will also limit point rainfall amounts. With temperatures in the
90s, and dew points in the 30s, expect some gusty winds with any
rainfall that evaporates with some gusts as high as 50mph under
dissipating storms.
Skies will gradually clear later this evening with dry conditions
expected through the overnight as temperatures drop into the upper 50s
to around 60 degrees on the plains with around 50 degrees along the
foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers and isolated
thunderstorms will produce a T-0.10” total in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate shower/thunderstorm will produce 0.10-0.20” total in 10-30
minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A stronger thunderstorm, or training of
thunderstorm cells will have the potential to produce up to 0.4”
total in under 30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Temperatures tomorrow will decrease into the low 80s in
the afternoon. A better chance for showers/isolated thunderstorms
during the afternoon and early evening. A slight chance one or two of
these storms become severe with hail up to 1.0” and gusty winds up
to 60mph. This will also result in at least a LOW chance of heavy
rainfall for the District. Any storm activity tomorrow is expected to
clear out by 8pm with clear skies through the late evening and
overnight. Similar conditions remain in place on Sunday. However,
slightly less overall moisture will decrease storm potential across
the I-25 corridor.

Hot and dry conditions persist today
Hot and dry conditions prevail across the District as a heat wave
remains parked over the Desert Southwest. Today will be sunny with
afternoon temperatures climbing into the in upper 80s to low 90s, dew
points in the mid 30s, and precipitable water (PWAT) values around
