For most locations, gusty winds and little rainfall are expected with storms today. A few stronger storms could develop across our far southeastern plains, where hail up to 1 inch and winds gusting over 60 mph will be possible. Isolated showers and thunderstorms will be possible across the mountains this afternoon which will be capable of producing lightning, spotty light rainfall, and localized gusty outflow winds up to 40 mph. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday Several rounds of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms can be expected Saturday through Monday. Thunderstorms will be most widespread and strongest across the southeast mountains and plains. A few severe thunderstorms will be possible Saturday afternoon across the southeast mountains and plains with large hail, damaging winds and locally heavy rainfall possible. An isolated tornado can not be ruled out, especially east of I-25 and along and north of highway 50. A few strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible Sunday and Monday across the southeast mountains and adjacent I-25 corridor with large hail, damaging winds, and locally heavy rainfall capable of causing localized flash flooding possible, especially for burn scars and urban areas. Creeks, streams and major water ways are already running high but within banks in and near the mountains due to rapid snow melt. Additional rainfall could exacerbate flows resulting in localized flooding if it falls too quickly over the wrong locations. Please exercise care in and near water ways over the next several days. Isolated thunderstorms will be possible over and near the mountains Tuesday through Thursday with the main risk being gusty winds up to 40 mph and lightning. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be possible over portions of the region. $$ EHR/31
