MESSAGE 1’S HAVE BEEN ISSUED EFFECTIVE UNTIL 8:00 PM
Message 1’s have been issued for the entire District effective
until 8:00pm for the threat of heavy rainfall with a slight chance for
severe storms across the District this afternoon and evening.
Storms have initiated along the higher terrain and are expected to
move into the District over the next hour. Similar to yesterday storms
will move from WSW to ENE between 10-15mph, with erratic storm
movement likely along outflow boundaries. These outflow storms will
likely have the highest potential for heavy rainfall today as they
anchor in place. Storms may also contain large hail up to 1.0” and
gusty winds up to 60mph. Dew points are also still elevated, in the
mid to upper 50s and will likely help fuel moderate to heavy rainfall
leading to some localized flooding.
A couple of rounds of storms will be possibly today, likely decreasing
in strength as the evening progresses with off and on showers possible
through the overnight. Overnight temperatures will drop to around 60
degrees on the plains with low to mid 50s along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers and
thunderstorms will produce a 0.10-0.50” total in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate to strong shower/thunderstorm will produce 0.50-0.80" total
in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Strong stationary thunderstorms, or training of
thunderstorm cells could have the potential to produce up to 1.60”
total in 30-60 minutes or less.
