Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
Sunny skies and dry conditions across the District today
Uneventful conditions are expected across the Front Range Urban
Corridor as ridge building begins over the Intermountain West.
Afternoon temperatures will reach the upper 70s to low 80s, dew points
in the low 30s, and precipitable water (PWAT) vales up to 0.50”. Due
to westerly upper-level flow and convergence aloft, sunny skies and
dry conditions will prevail across the District.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Precipitation is not expected
in the District today.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A weak isolated shower develops over complex
terrain and produces up to 0.05 in 15-30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Looking ahead, the rest of week will be more active as
northwesterly upper-level winds transport Pacific atmospheric moisture
into the region. Tuesday will be warm and mostly sunny with isolated
afternoon to evening showers and thunderstorms. At this time, minimal
rainfall amounts are expected.
