Flash Flood Prediction Program

Time: 825 AM Mon June 14, 2021 Forecaster: Brad Simmons ------------------------- Heavy Precipitation Outlook Flash Flood Prediction Program ------------------------- HEAT WAVE INTENSIFIES - Strengthening ridge of high pressure over the state of Colorado will result in near record breaking heat over the next few days. For today temperatures will climb into the upper 90's to around 100 degrees over the plains. Record high for Denver today is 102 and we likely end up a degree or two short of the record. - Warming temperatures aloft should keep a lid on any thunderstorm development today with a build up of some fair weather clouds this afternoon making for mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies at times. Any thunderstorm activity is expected to remain well S and E of the District today. - Conditions remain dry overnight with lows bottoming out in the 60's over the plains. STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation expected today or tonight. A LOOK AHEAD: Temperatures will tack on another 1-3 degrees on Tuesday with highs either side of 100 degrees over the plains! With a little more moisture to work with on Tuesday there could be an isolated storm or two in the afternoon which will help to alleviate the heat for some. Another hot day Wednesday with highs around 100 and a slight chance for afternoon thunderstorms. MONITOR NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FOR SEVERE WEATHER STATEMENTS.
