High pressure building into the area today will allow drier air to build in as well, leading to a downturn in shower and storm activity compared to previous days. Look for storms to develop over the higher terrain this afternoon and evening. The main threats will be gusty winds, frequent lightning, as well as some brief heavy rain and maybe small hail. Temperatures will be around 5 degrees warmer today. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday. The next push of subtropical moisture looks to arrive on Sunday, bringing a return of widespread shower and thunderstorm activity. These storms will be capable of producing prolonged heavy rain and the threat for flash flooding will be on the increase Sunday into Monday. Another round of increased activity will be possible Wednesday and Thursday before drier air once more tries to build in overhead late in the week. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not expected today or tonight, however spotters are encouraged to relay rainfall amounts or any observed flooding to the National Weather Service in Grand Junction. $$
