Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Denver/Boulder, CO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 9, 3:00 PM MDT, 3 hours 31 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 9, 3:00 PM MDT, 3 hours 31 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
300 PM MDT MON AUG 9 2004

.SHORT TERM DISCUSSION...AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL
CONTINUE OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST TONIGHT AND TUESDAY ALLOWING FOR
A NORTHWESTERLY FLOW TO CONTINUE OVER THE CWFA.  AMS IS QUITE MOIST
FROM THE FRONT RANGE FOOTHILLS EASTWARD THIS AFTN WITH DEWPOINT FM
THE LOWER 50S TO LOWER 60S.  POTENTIAL FOR SVR THUNDERSTORM WILL
FVBL WITH SOME AREAS REACHING THE LOWER 80S EAST AND SOUTH OF
DENVER.  THIS IS WHERE THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR SVR THUNDERSTORMS
RESIDES.  SFC BASED CAPES OVER LINCOLN AND SOUTHER WASHINGTON
COUNTIES RANGES FROM 2800-3400 J/KG WITH VERY LIMITED CIN. FURTHER
N...THE AMS IS MORE CAPPED TO THUNDERSTORMS MAY HOLD OFF UNTIL THIS
EVENING.  WILL ALSO MENTION PATCHY FOG OVERNIGHT WITH LOWER LVLS
EXPECTED TO REMAIN VERY MOIST OVER THE NORTHEAST PLAINS OVERNIGHT.
IF ANY DECENT CLEARING OCCURS THEN FOG POTENTIAL COULD BE MORE THAN
PATCHY TUESDAY MORNING...ESPECIALLY IF WEAK CYCLONE DEVELOPS.  ON
TUESDAY...BEST SHEAR PROFILE FOR STRONG OR POSSIBLY SEVERE STORMS
WILL BE IN THE ELBERT AND LINCOLN COUNTY AREAS AGAIN. FCST CAPES TUESDAY
AFTERNOON ARE AROUND 3000 J/KG WITH 82/54 T/TD WITH NO CIN PRESENT.
ELSEWHERE CAPES AROUND 2000 J/KG...WITH SOME LIMITED CIN AS WELL.
MESOETA SHOWS A SECONDARY SURGE WITH SFC HIGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON...SO
GENERAL SCENARIO SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO TODAY/S SETUP FOR SEVERE
WEATHER.  NO BIG CHANGES ANTICIPATED CONCERNING POPS FOR TONIGHT AND
TUESDAY.

.LONG TERM DISCUSSION...TUE NIGHT THROUGH THU WE WILL BE IN NW FLOW
ALF WITH WEAK RIPPLES MAINTAINING UPSLOPE FLOW. IN GENERAL THERE
WILL BE SOME CLOUD COVER FROM ISENTROPIC LIFT OVER THE COOL AIR ON
THE PLAINS. MEANWHILE...THE AIR OVER THE MOUNTAINS WILL REMAIN DRY.
IT WILL BE A STRETCH TO REACH CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURE ON THE
PLAINS...BUT COMBINATION OF MID LEVEL MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY AND
OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM MOUNTAIN CONVECTION STILL POSES SOME RISK OF
CONVECTION. WED STILL LOOKS THE MOST SOCKED IN BUT MODELS SHOWING
ANOTHER LITTLE SURGE THU SO I DROPPED TEMPERATURES A LITTLE THEN.
FOR THE WEEKEND RIDGE REBUILDS OVER THE ROCKIES. MOST GFS ENSEMBLES
AND ECMWF HAVE A BIT STRONGER RIDGE. SOME QUESTION ABOUT EVENTUAL
NORTHWARD DRAW OF MOISTURE INTO THE RIDGE...BUT STRONGER AND/OR MORE
WESTWARD RIDGE POSITION WOULD DELAY THIS...SO I WILL STICK WITH OUR
WARM AND RELATIVELY DRY FORECAST.

.BOU...WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.

1105 AM MDT MON AUG 09 2004

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHEAST AND NORTH CENTRAL
COLORADO.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS ALL OF NORTHEAST COLORADO
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

SUNSHINE...ALONG WITH A RELATIVELY MOIST AIRMASS...WILL COMBINE TO
PRODUCE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND EAST OF THE FRONT RANGE
MOUNTAINS TODAY. THE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN THE FOOTHILLS
BY 2 PM AND THEN SPREAD EASTWARD INTO THE PLAINS LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING.

SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY AND STRONG WIND SHEAR IN THE ATMOSPHERE WILL
PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FEW SEVERE STORMS. LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREATS.
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN COULD POSE FLOODING PROBLEMS IN THE HAYMAN...
OVERLAND AND PICNIC ROCK BURN AREAS.

THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER INCLUDES THE FRONT RANGE METRO AREA
INCLUDING DENVER...BOULDER...FORT COLLINS AND LOVELAND.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN ON
TUESDAY. A FEW OF THE STORMS MAY BE SEVERE. ON WEDNESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL REDUCE THE THREAT OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WITH MOST OF THE ACTIVITY OVER THE MOUNTAINS. THIS
WEEKEND WARMER WEATHER IS EXPECTED WITH A CONTINUED SLIGHT CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE NEEDED AFTER 2 PM THIS AFTERNOON.
