This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Thunderstorms are forecast to develop over the mountains by mid
afternoon will have the capability of producing locally heavy
rainfall. If one of these storms should form over a recent burn
scar, then flash flooding would be possible, especially over the
Hayden Pass and Junkins Burn Scars.

Strong to marginally severe thunderstorms will be possible this
afternoon and evening over most of the Eastern Plains. These
storms will be capable of wind gusts to near 60 mph and hail up
to the size of quarters.

All storms will produce cloud to ground lightning.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday

On Tuesday, isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms can be
expected across the area. A few storms across the far southeast
plains will be marginally severe, with hail around quarter size,
wind gusts around 60 mph. Locally heavy rainfall and lightning can
also be expected with these storms.

Then, mainly isolated storms, with cloud to ground lightning,
wind gusts around 50 mph, and small hail will be possible during
the afternoons and evenings from Wednesday through Sunday.

Locations over the mountains and the San Luis Valley will see
elevated fire weather conditions Tuesday through Thursday.
Increasing westerly winds and low humidity values are expected,
however, much will depend on fuel status. Use caution with any
expected outdoor burning activities.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be
possible this afternoon and this evening across most of
Southeastern Colorado.
