MESSAGE 1’S WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 9:00 PM FOR PORTIONS OF THE
DISTRICT
Message 1’s will be allowed to expire at 9pm for portions of the
District as the threat of heavy rain has come to an end.
After a few strong storms for eastern portions of the District, only a
few lingering showers remain as thunderstorms continue to move
eastward and out of the District. Skies will gradually clear into the
late evening, however an additional round of showers with some
thunderstorm potential will be possible in the early morning hours
Tuesday. Overnight lows will drop into upper 40s to low 50s on the
plains with low to mid 40s along the foothills.
Another chance for showers and thunderstorms tomorrow, starting as
early as midday and lasting through the afternoon and into the early
evening. The potential for strong to severe storms will remain,
however, cooler overall temperatures, in the low 60s may help limit
convection across the Front Range.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers will produce
rainfall of a T-0.10” total in 10-30 minutes. Moderate to strong
showers have the potential to produce rainfall of 0.10” to 0.30”
total in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Strong stationary, or training of thunderstorms
has the potential to produce 0.50” in under 60 minutes.
