The radar

The Dodge City radar (KDDC), 192 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 01:01 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
454 PM MDT SUN JUN 23 2013

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 447 PM MDT SUN JUN 23 2013

UPDATED TO ISSUE A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR AREAS EAST OF A
LINE FROM COLORADO SPRINGS TO SPRINGFIELD. THIS WATCH GOES THROUGH
MIDNIGHT. THE MAIN THREATS WILL BE LIGHTNING...DAMAGING OUTFLOW
WIND GUSTS AND HAIL TO ONE INCH IN DIAMETER.  MOZLEY

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 227 PM MDT SUN JUN 23 2013

...CONTINUED DANGEROUS FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS...

CURRENTLY...SMOKE FROM THE WEST FORK COMPLEX IS STARTING TO SHIFT
EAST ACROSS THE SAN LUIS VALLEY AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO PUSH EAST
THROUGH THE EVENING.  RADAR HAS BEEN PRETTY QUIET WITH A FEW CELLS
BUBBLING NEAR THE SPANISH PEAKS/WALSENBURG AREA.  SOUTHEASTERLY
SURFACE FLOW HAS KEPT MOISTURE IN PLACE ACROSS THE PLAINS WITH DEW
POINTS IN THE 40S TO MID 50S.  TEMPERATURES ARE WARM WITH UPPER 80S
TO LOWER 90S FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS.

TONIGHT...MAIN CONCERN FOR THIS EVENING WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE PLAINS.  CUMULUS HAVE BEEN
PERCOLATING ACROSS THE RAMPART RANGE AND EASTERN MOUNTAINS THIS
AFTERNOON AND AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH THE
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT...IT WILL LIKELY TRIGGER ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS.  FOLLOWED A BLEND OF THE WRF SOLUTIONS AND HRRR WHICH
DEVELOP SPOTTY CONVECTION FROM COLORADO SPRINGS...SOUTHEAST TO
SPRINGFIELD AND TRACK THEM EAST ACROSS THE PLAINS THROUGH 05Z.
UPDRAFT HELICITY VALUES ARE WEAK BASED ON THE NSSL WRF SOLUTION AND
SHEARS ARE ONLY RUNNING AROUND 30 KTS SO CURRENTLY THINKING THE MAIN
THREATS WILL BE HAIL TO ONE INCH IN DIAMETER AND STRONG THUNDERSTORM
OUTFLOW WINDS.  THE TORNADO THREAT LOOKS TO REMAIN NORTH IN
NORTHEAST COLORADO.  EXPECT ALL ACTIVITY TO SHIFT EAST INTO KANSAS
THROUGH 06Z WITH DRY CONDITIONS THE REST OF THE NIGHT.

MONDAY...AN UPPER TROUGH WILL MOVE OUT OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
WHICH WILL INCREASE SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ACROSS COLORADO.  THIS WILL
SET THE STAGE FOR WIDESPREAD EXTREME FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WITH
WINDS GUSTING TO 30 TO 40 MPH...AND HUMIDITY VALUES WELL UNDER 10
PERCENT.  EXTREME CAUTION IS ADVISED ACROSS ALL OF SOUTHERN
COLORADO...BUT PARTICULARLY OVER THE MOUNTAIN REGIONS AND AREAS
ALONG AND WEST OF I-25.  THE STRONG WINDS SHOULD ALSO ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO WARM QUICKLY INTO TO THE UPPER 90S TO LOWER 100S
ACROSS THE PLAINS.  SMOKE FROM AREA FIRES WILL SPREAD ACROSS MUCH OF
THE AREA BY THE AFTERNOON WITH REDUCED VISIBILITIES AND POOR AIR
QUALITY.  MOZLEY

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 227 PM MDT SUN JUN 23 2013

THERE COULD BE A FEW SHOWERS/TSTMS ALONG THE ERN BORDER EARLY MON
EVENING...BUT WL LEAVE THE FORECAST DRY OUT THERE FOR NOW. DRY
WESTERLY FLOW IS EXPECTED OVR THE FORECAST AREA ON TUE. IT LOOKS
LIKE LOW LEVEL MSTR OVR THE ERN SAN JUAN AND LA GARITA MTNS MAY BE
A LITTLE HIGHER ON TUE...KEEPING MIN RH VALUES HIGH ENOUGH THAT A
FIRE WX HIGHLIGHT SHOULD NOT BE NEEDED FOR THAT AREA. HOWEVER
THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THE WINDS WL BE STRONG ENOUGH...ALONG WITH
DRY ENOUGH HUMIDITIES OVER THE SAN LUIS VALLEY (FIRE ZONE 224) AND
ALONG THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MTNS (FIRE ZONE 225)...TO WARRANT A FIRE
WEATHER WATCH. THE REST OF THE AREA SHOULD NOT HAVE STRONG ENOUGH
WINDS TO WARRANT A FIRE HIGHLIGHT.

FOR WED AN UPR RIDGE CENTER IS EXPECTED TO BE OVR THE WEST CENTRAL
NM...WITH THE FLOW ALOFT OVR THE FORECAST AREA BECOMING MORE
NORTHWESTERLY. STILL LOOKS DRY ACRS THE AREA...WITH MAYBE JUST A
COUPLE SHOWERS/TSTMS POPPING UP OVR SOME MTN LOCATIONS. THE UPR
RIDGE THEN REMAINS OVR THE AREA THU THRU SAT WITH MODELS
INDICATING SOME MSTR TRAPPED UNDER THE RIDGE AND THE POTENTIAL FOR
JUST A FEW SHOWERS/TSTMS OVR AND NR THE MTNS. THE GFS SHOWS THE
POTENTIAL FOR A WEATHER SYSTEM MOVING BY TO THE NORTH SAT
NIGHT/SUN FLATTENING THE RIDGE AND SENDING A FRONT INTO THE AREA.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 227 PM MDT SUN JUN 23 2013

VFR CONDITIONS AT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS. WINDS
GUSTING 20 TO 25 KTS HAVE SPREAD ACROSS ALL TERMINALS. SMOKE IS
STARTING TO SPREAD EAST OVER THE SAN LUIS VALLEY...BUT THE LATE
START HAS KEPT THE DENSITY AND COVERAGE A BIT LESS AND DO NOT FORESEE
IT BEING AN ISSUE AT KPUB OR KCOS TONIGHT.  AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM
IS POSSIBLE OVER THE PLAINS THIS EVENING...BUT NOT ANTICIPATING ANY
DEVELOPMENT AT OR NEAR THE TERMINALS.  MOZLEY
