- | Message 2's continue valid until 9pm as the threat for heavy rainfall continues into this afternoon and evening. |
- | Cooler and cloudy this morning with a few lingering rain showers out on the eastern plains at this time. High temperatures today will reach the mid to upper 70's this afternoon which could help limit the potential for stronger storms. However, with adequate moisture still in place, even moderate storms could produce heavy rainfall with the chance for longer duration rainfall from storms that form along outflow boundaries that remain stationary for an extended period of time. Storm chances will start between noon and 1pm, with prime time between 4-9pm. With the recent moisture it may not take as much rain to produce excessive runoff and possibly flash flooding. |
- | A chance will remain for a few scattered lingering rain showers through the evening and into the overnight. Overnight skies will remain cloudy with lows dropping into the 60's on the plains with mid to upper 50's along the foothills. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong thunderstorm will have the potential to produce up to 3.6" in 45-60 minutes. Storms that persist beyond 60 minutes may produce locally higher amounts.
