MESSAGE 1’S HAVE BEEN ISSUED EFFECTIVE UNTIL MIDNIGHT
An upper-level disturbance has moved into northern Colorado this
evening creating a line of storms just north of the District. These
storms will move SE between 10-15mph with additional storms possible
off outflow boundaries into the later evening. Storm motions should
help limit point rainfall amounts. However, erratic movement could
produce longer lasting localized heavy rainfall. The largest threat of
heavy rain will be a quick 0.5” in 10-20 minutes. Storms may also
contain large hail up to 1.0” and gusty winds up to 60mph. Currently
storms will favor north and northeastern portions of the District,
with other storms potentially forming across other portions of the
District as the night continues. Storms will start to dissipate by
midnight, with the threat for heavy rainfall likely following suit.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical thunderstorms will
produce rainfall of T-0.25” total in 10-30 minutes. Moderate to
strong storms have the potential to produce heavy rainfall of 0.25" to
0.50” total in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Strong stationary, or training of thunderstorms
has the potential to produce 0.50” to 1.00" total in under 30
minutes.
