Flash Flood Prediction Program

High pressure ridging over the Desert Southwest will support sunny and hot conditions today ahead of a cold front tomorrow. This morning will be clear and dry before afternoon temperatures climb into the low to mid 90s, dew points in the mid 40s. Isolated showers are possible along the foothills throughout the afternoon and evening. There is a very low chance an isolated shower rolls off the foothills later this afternoon, with chances diminishing by the evening.

STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical thunderstorms have the potential to produce a TR to 0.25” 10-30 minutes.

WORST CASE SCENARIO: A stronger thunderstorm has the potential to produce 0.25” to 0.50” in 60 minutes.

A LOOK AHEAD: Tomorrow will be an active day across the Front Range Urban Corridor as a strong cold front approaches from the north. High temperatures will reach the mid 80s with scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms initiating during the early afternoon. Thunderstorms may become severe, producing gusty outflows exceeding 58 mph, and hail greater than 1.00 inch in diameter. Storms will persist into the evening and overnight hours as the cold front works its way across the High Plains. Showers will continue through Wednesday with cooler temperatures in the upper 60s to low 70s.
