Flash Flood Prediction Program

Time: 757 AM Fri June 4, 2021 Forecaster: Brad Simmons ------------------------- Heavy Precipitation Outlook Flash Flood Prediction Program ------------------------- DRY WITH THE FIRST 90 DEGREE DAY OF THE YEAR? - Conditions will be dry over the District today as high pressure aloft dominates the weather pattern. Temperatures will warm into the upper 80s to lower 90s over the plains with 70's and 80's in the Front Range foothills. - If we reach 90 it will be the first 90 degree day of the season. Normal high for Denver today is 79 degrees. June 10th is the average date for the first 90 degree day of the season so we are a little early if we reach 90 today. Skies will be sunny to mostly sunny with light and variable winds making for pleasant outdoor conditions. STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation today and tonight. A LOOK AHEAD: If DIA does not reach 90 degrees today it most certainly will tomorrow as highs are projected to reach the lower 90's most areas. A weak upper level disturbance will move into the District in the afternoon and result in widely scattered afternoon and early evening thunderstorms. The storms that develop Saturday will produce light to briefly moderate rain and gusty winds. MONITOR NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FOR SEVERE WEATHER STATEMENTS.
