| Time | Report | Where | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood 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.
The nearest sounding before it
Denver, CO (KDEN), launched 00:00Z, 3.2 hours before the alert went out and 209 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Pueblo, CO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Aug 22, 7:43 PM MDT, 1 hour 28 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 22, 7:43 PM MDT, 1 hour 28 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 743 PM MDT THU AUG 22 2013 .UPDATE... ISSUED AT 743 PM MDT THU AUG 22 2013 UPDATED TO EXTEND FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH 10 PM MDT. && .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY) ISSUED AT 345 PM MDT THU AUG 22 2013 ...HEAVY RAINERS THIS EVENING... FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL CONTINUE FOR THE WALDO AND BLACK FOREST BURN SCARS THROUGH 8 PM. OTHER BURN SCARS IN THE AREA ARE NOT OFF THE HOOK EITHER...JUST NOT QUITE AS MUCH CONFIDENCE AS THE WALDO AND BLACK FOREST SCARS. PRIMARY DRIVERS FOR FLASH FLOOD THREAT THIS EVENING ARE PRECIPITABLE WATER AND SLOW STORM MOVEMENT. TOTAL BLENDED PRECIPITABLE WATERS HAVE BEEN CREEPING UP THROUGH THE DAY AND ARE NOW AT 152% OF NORMAL OVER THE WALDO AND BLACK FOREST SCARS. A GOOD PORTION OF SOUTHEAST AND SOUTH CENTRAL COLORADO IS CURRENTLY IN THE 140-150% OF NORMAL RANGE...WITH EXTREMES OF 177% OVER NORTHWEST CROWLEY COUNTY ON THE HIGH END...AND 100% OVER THE FAR SOUTHEAST CORNER OF BACA COUNTY ON THE LOW END. THE OTHER BIG CONCERN IS THE VERY SLOW STORM MOVEMENTS SO FAR THIS AFTERNOON. A FEW STORM UPDRAFTS HAVE BEEN GOING UP VERY INTENSELY AND THEN JUST MEANDERING VERY SLOWLY TO THE NORTHEAST OR MOVING HARDLY AT ALL. THIS COMBINATION OF HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER AND SLOW STORM MOVEMENT IS VERY CONCERNING...ESPECIALLY IF A BURN SCAR IS THE TARGET. ANOTHER IMPORTANT FACTOR IS THE SURFACE MOISTURE. DESPITE MODEL FORECASTS OF SURFACE DEWPOINTS MIXING INTO THE 40S OVER MOST OF THE I-25 CORRIDOR...THAT HAS NOT REALLY BEEN THE CASE SO FAR. MOST AREAS HAVE REMAINED IN THE 50S...WITH JUST A FEW UPPER 40S OVER FAR NORTHWEST EL PASO COUNTY. SO...IF IT RAINS...IT COULD RAIN HARD...FOR A LONG TIME...AND WITH VERY LITTLE EVAPORATION. CURRENTLY...AN INTENSE CLUSTER OF STORMS IS DEVELOPING ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THE TELLER AND EL PASO COUNTY LINES. THIS IS PROBABLY THE KICK OFF AND THE AREA TO WATCH FOR STORM EVOLUTION OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL BE COMING SOUTH OUT OF THOSE STORMS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE HOURS...INITIATING NEW CONVECTION THAT WILL LIKELY BE EQUALLY AS INTENSE. ANOTHER BIG AREA TO WATCH RIGHT NOW IS ALONG THE RATON MESA WHERE THE RADAR IS CURRENTLY LIGHTING UP. THIS AREA IS LIKELY BEING TRIGGERED BY THE HIGHER TERRAIN DOWN THERE AS WELL AS A LINE OF WIND CONVERGENCE...WITH LIGHT NORTHEAST WINDS TO THE NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY...AND SOUTHWEST BREEZES TO THE SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY. PROBABLY BEST POTENTIAL FOR ANY SEVERE WEATHER THIS AREA...ALTHOUGH PALMER DIVIDE IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION EITHER. RECENT DATA INDICATES POSSIBLE SHEER VALUES 25-30 KTS ALONG THE DIVIDE. CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS...GRADUALLY DISSIPATING IN MOST CASES BUT WITH SOME NEW CONVECTION FORMING. THEN...AFTER MIDNIGHT...SHOULD SEE CONVECTION GRADUALLY DISSIPATE IN ALL AREAS. .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 345 PM MDT THU AUG 22 2013 METEOROLOGICAL CHALLENGES DURING THE LONGER TERM CONTINUE TO BE POPS AND TEMPERATURES. RELATIVELY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS FOR LONGER CYCLE AS UPPER RIDGE IS STILL EXPECTED TO REMAIN CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE FORECAST DISTRICT TO ALLOW PRIMARY MOISTURE AXIS TO REMAIN NEAR AND WEST OF THE WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE CWFA DURING THE MAJORITY OF THE LONGER TERM. UPPER RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE LOCATED OVER FAR SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD RELOCATE TO EASTERN KANSAS BY 00Z MONDAY AND THEN OSCILLATE OVER PORTIONS OF KANSAS INTO THURSDAY BEFORE MAKING A MORE SUBSTANTIAL PUSH EAST FROM LATE NEXT WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND. MOST FAVORABLE MOISTURE FEED DURING THE LONGER TERM SHOULD BE NOTED OVER WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST DISTRICT AND POINTS WEST DURING THE LONGER TERM WITH THE PRIMARY DEEPER MOISTURE EMANATING FROM THE DEEP TROPICS OFF THE WEST COAST OF MEXICO REMAINING CENTERED OVER ARIZONA...UTAH AND WESTERN COLORADO REGION INTO NEXT WEEK. WESTERN BURN SCARS SUCH AS THE WEST FORK COMPLEX SHOULD NOTE THE HIGHEST POTENTIAL OF BURN SCAR FLASH FLOODING DURING THIS TIME-FRAME. AS ALWAYS...WFO PUEBLO WILL MONITOR CLOSELY. WELL ABOVE SEASONAL LATE AUGUST MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES(ESPECIALLY EASTERN SECTIONS) ARE ANTICIPATED THROUGH NEXT THURSDAY. FOR EXAMPLE...MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES REACHING INTO THE 90S SHOULD BE NOTED OVER THE MAJORITY THE SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO PLAINS FROM SATURDAY INTO NEXT THURSDAY. FINALLY...RELATIVELY LOW-GRADE GRADIENT WIND SHOULD CONTINUE OVER THE MAJORITY OF THE FORECAST DISTRICT THROUGH NEXT THURSDAY. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY EVENING) ISSUED AT 345 PM MDT THU AUG 22 2013 MAIN CONCERN THIS EVENING IS CONVECTION DEVELOPING OVER THE PALMER DIVIDE...RATON RIDGE AND OTHER MOUNTAIN AREAS...AND THEN OVER THE REST OF SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO AS THE EVENING PROGRESSES. WILL SEE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS...ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THE STRONGER STORMS...AND POSSIBLY SOME SMALL HAIL. GREATEST RISK OF HEAVY RAINFALL AFFECTING THE TERMINALS WILL BE AT KCOS IN THE 22-02Z TIME PERIOD. COULD BRIEFLY SEE MVFR OR EVEN POTENTIALLY A SHORT PERIOD OF IFR WITH HEAVY RAIN...ALONG WITH WIND GUSTS IN THE 30-40KT RANGE. LW && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

MORNING MODEL DATA CONTINUES TO INDICATE GOOD POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IN AND AROUND THE SCARS. LIKELIHOOD OF FLASH FLOODING ON THE SCARS IS NOW IN THE RANGE OF 50 TO 60 PERCENT BETWEEN ABOUT 1 PM AND 8 PM MDT TODAY. CONDITIONS ARE RIGHT FOR FLASHING FLOODING TODAY. ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE IS UP AND STORM MOVEMENT WILL BE SLOW. THE DEVELOPMENT OF FLASH FLOODING...HOWEVER...WILL STILL BE DEPENDENT ON HOW CONVECTION ACTUALLY DEVELOPS AND TRACKS LATER TODAY. OTHERWISE... SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON...THEN SPREAD EAST ACROSS THE INTERSTATE 25 CORRIDOR AND PLAINS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS...WHICH COULD POSE A FLASH FLOOD THREAT ON ANY OF THE AREA BURN SCARS. OTHER STORM THREATS WILL BE CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING AND WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 45 MPH. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY DAILY AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS ARE FORECAST FOR THE MOUNTAIN AREAS FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. LIGHTNING WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT FROM THUNDERSTORMS. IN ADDITION...SLOW STORM MOVEMENTS WILL LIKELY LEAD TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WHICH COULD LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING ISSUES ON AREA BURN SCARS...IN PARTICULAR THE WEST FORK COMPLEX. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND INTERSTATE 25 CORRIDOR THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. 50/50
