...HIGH AND POTENTIALLY DAMAGING WINDS FROM SEVERE STORMS THIS
AFTERNOON...

This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central
Colorado.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

A line of thunderstorms will race across the area this afternoon.
As this line of thunderstorms moves through, wind gusts of 40 to
60 mph are expected. Isolated wind gusts of 70 to 80 mph will be
possible with the stronger thunderstorms over the plains. The last
of the storms will move out of the far northeast corner of
Colorado by 7-8 mph. Impact will include significant danger to
boaters and outdoor water enthusiasts, who should get off the
water well before storms and gusty winds arrive. Scattered power
outages are also possible.

Breezy to windy conditions will likely linger over the higher
foothills and Front Range Mountains through the evening, while
other locations will see winds subside quickly behind the line of
storms.

Fire danger will be elevated due to very warm temperatures and
gusty winds on the plains ahead of the front.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

Dry conditions and above normal temperatures are expected both
Wednesday and Thursday. This may lead to elevated fire weather
conditions. By Friday, isolated to scattered chances for storms and
showers return.

The next storm system arriving this weekend will bring cooler
unsettled weather to the region with rainfall on the plains and
the potential for accumulating snow across the higher Front Range
Mountains.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter are encouraged to provide any reports of severe wind gusts
or wind damage this afternoon.
