Flash Flood Prediction Program

-	Upper level disturbance moving overhead today will produce multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms over the District into the evening. The first round of storms will act to increase surface moisture leading to better chances for brief moderate and heavy rainfall with subsequent rounds of storms later this afternoon and evening.
-	Moderate to strong thunderstorms will have the potential for brief heavy rainfall. The strongest storms will most likely be hail producers with relatively low freezing levels and storms will be fast moving from SW to NE at 15-25mph helping to reduce point rainfall amounts.
-	2-4 rounds of showers and thunderstorms are expected to move through into the evening with prime time for storms from noon today to 2am Monday.

STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers and weak thunderstorms will produce a 0.1-0.3" of rainfall in 10-30 minutes. Moderate to strong thunderstorms will have the potential to produce rainfall rates of 0.3-0.8" in 10-30 minutes.

WORST CASE SCENARIO: Training of thunderstorm cells or a slower moving strong thunderstorm may result in up to 1.5" of rainfall in 45-75 minutes.

A LOOK AHEAD: A decrease in overall shower and thunderstorm activity is expected on Monday but there will be a few afternoon and evening showers/thunderstorms with cooler temperatures in the 60's. Thunderstorms Tuesday afternoon and evening will turn into a soaking rainfall overnight with some snow for the Front Range foothills into Wednesday morning.
