Message 1’s will be allowed to expire at midnight as the threat for heavy rainfall has ended. A few additional widely scattered rain showers and possibly a very isolated weak thunderstorm will remain possible into the early morning hours on Friday. Best chances for additional precipitation will be through 3 or 4am then completely dry conditions are expected to develop in and around the District. Areas of patchy fog may develop overnight over the plains but should burn off quickly early tomorrow morning. A significant decrease in storm activity will occur on Friday as the upper level disturbance that produced the multiple waves of storms today will push eastward. Temperatures will continue to be below seasonal averages with highs in the 80’s over the plains with 70's in the Front Range foothills. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Although unlikely, if a moderate thunderstorm is able to develop it will be capable of producing rainfall rates of 0.1-0.4” in 10-30 minutes.
