- | Message 1's will continue valid until 9:00 PM but the threat for heavy rainfall is diminishing now that temperatures are cooling. |
- | A line of moderate to strong thunderstorms develop along a surface wind convergence line or Denver Convergence Vorticity Zone (DCVZ) that extended from Douglas County northeastward into Arapahoe and Adams County including the DIA portion of Denver County. These storms have peaked in intensity over the past hour and the boundary is washing out resulting in a lower threat for thunderstorms with the potential for heavy rainfall into the evening. |
- | A weak gust front is progressing eastward from these original storms and when it reaches the foothills may generate new storms but with a cooling airmass the threat for new development is low. Should a new round of thunderstorms develop, stronger storms will have the potential to produce brief heavy rainfall. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong, stationary thunderstorm or training of thunderstorm may result in up to 2.0" of heavy rain in 45-60 minutes.
