...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP OVER SOUTHEAST COLORADO LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

A LARGE AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOPED OVER NEW MEXICO AND
TEXAS LAST NIGHT HAS ALLOWED LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TO PUSH INTO THE

THE SURFACE TODAY WILL HELP SUSTAIN THIS MOISTURE OVER THE
SOUTHEAST PLAINS.

THEREFORE...ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP MOST
ANYWHERE OVER THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...BUT SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE CONFINED TO AREAS
SOUTH AND EAST OF LA JUNTA.  THE PRIMARY THREAT FROM
THUNDERSTORMS THAT BECOME SEVERE IS HAIL AROUND ONE INCH IN
DIAMETER OR GREATER...AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS 60 MPH OR GREATER.
8
GIVEN THAT ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS MAY DEVELOP OVER FAR
SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO...LOCAL SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NECESSARY
