Washington County Hazardous Weather Outlook

…FLASH FLOOD WATCH MUCH OF THE PLAINS EAST OF THE I-25 CORRIDOR
4 PM UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT…

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

.DAY ONE…This Afternoon and Tonight

Thunderstorms over the mountains and foothills will push eastward
across the plains this afternoon and evening. These storms will
be capable of producing heavy rainfall and flash flooding. The
greatest risk will be across the plains mainly east of line from
Greeley to Kiowa, but recent burn scars and urban areas closer to
the Front Range may also experience some flooding. The strongest
storms on the plains will also produce strong wind gusts up to 70
mph and some hail.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN…Friday through Wednesday

Scattered afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms are
expected over the mountains, foothills and adjacent plains Friday
through Sunday. The plains further east can expect a slight
chance of late day storms. Moisture is forecast to increase later
Sunday continuing through mid next week, so afternoon and evening
showers and thunderstorms will be likely. Heavy rainfall will be
the main threat with this pattern.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT…

Spotter activation may be required after 1 PM.
