If conditions become unrepresentative...contact the National Weather
Service.

.DISCUSSION...

Current radar shows thunderstorms remain around the area of Mt.
Blue Sky. These are fairly slow moving storms that are moving
generally from west to east. The chance for more storms will
remain elevated through late tonight, with potential for gusty
variable winds between 35-45 mph, small hail, rain, and more
lightning with any passing storms. Rain rates of up to one inch
per hour will be possible with any passing storms. There are more
storms currently upstream over the area of Loveland Pass that are
moving east towards this location. We do anticipate this
continuing with a significant decrease in coverage after
2100-2400 tonight.

Temperatures are in the 60s but will be cooler with any
precipitation. Overnight low temperatures are forecast to drop
into the 40s.
