MESSAGE 1'S ISSUED FOR THE ENTIRE DISTRICT
-
Message 1's have been issued for the entire District and will be
valid until 10:00 PM.
-
Thunderstorms have developed over the higher foothills to the W of
the District and upper level steering winds will push these storms
eastward with thunderstorms increasing withing the District between
2-3pm. Storms will be slow moving from W to E at around 10mph.
-
Slow storm motions and better moisture to work with today will
result in the stronger storms capable of producing heavy rainfall that
may lead to excessive runoff. The stronger storms will likely be
isolated with best chances W of I-25 and S of I-70 and in particular
over the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Moderate to strong
thunderstorms will have the potential to produce rainfall rates of
0.4-1.2" in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A slower moving or briefly anchored strong
thunderstorm may produce rainfall amounts of up to 2.0" in 45-75
minutes.
