MESSAGE 1’S HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THE ENTIRE DISTRICT
Message 1’s have been issued for the entire District effective
until 6pm.
Storms have initiated early this morning, with another stronger round
expected this late this morning and into the afternoon hours. Storms
this morning could possibly produce some brief moderate to heavy rain
with the largest threat being a quick 0.5” in 10-15 minutes.
Typical storm movements will be from W/NW to E/SE between 10-20mph
which should help limit point rainfall amounts. However, with low to
mid 50 dew points, a stalled out storm formed along an outflow
boundary will have the potential to produce localized heavy rainfall.
The best chance for storm activity will be from now through the late
afternoon with storms likely decreasing into the evening with skies
clearing this evening. A chance for isolated heavy rain this morning,
with a better chance for widespread storms along the I-25 corridor
during the afternoon. Some of these storms could become severe with
large hail up to 1.5”, gusty winds 60+mph, frequent cloud-to-ground
lightning. A weak land spout/tornado cannot be completely ruled out,
favoring areas east of I-25.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical rain showers/isolated
thunderstorms will produce 0.25-0.50” total, in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate to heavy thunderstorm could produce 0.50-1.50” total, in
10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A stationary strong thunderstorm, or training of
thunderstorm cells has the potential to produce 2.50” in 45-60
minutes.
