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

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE
MOUNTAINS AND HIGHER TERRAIN THIS AFTERNOON...THEN SPREAD OVER
THE PLAINS FROM LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS. A COLD
FRONT AND UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL ENHANCE THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY THIS EVENING WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN...GUSTY
WINDS AND SMALL HAIL. AFTER THE THUNDERSTORMS DIMINISH LATER
TONIGHT...EXPECT LOW CLOUDS AND PATCHY FOG TO DEVELOP ALONG THE
FRONT RANGE.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

LOW CLOUDS AND PATCHY FOG ARE EXPECTED IN THE FOOTHILLS AND
ADJACENT PLAINS FRIDAY MORNING. THIS COULD CREATE REDUCED
VISIBILITIES DURING THE MORNING COMMUTE. TEMPERATURES WILL BE COOLER
FRIDAY WITH AN INCREASE IN CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY IN THE AFTERNOON. A
FEW SLIGHTLY STRONGER STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE FRONT
RANGE AREA.

THE CHANCES FOR AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE
FROM FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY WITH GRADUALLY WARMING TEMPERATURES.

MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY WILL TURN COOLER AND WETTER AS A SYSTEM
MOVES OUT OF THE SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES. THIS WILL BRING
MORE SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE OVER THE REGION WITH A BETTER CHANCE OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED TODAY OR TONIGHT.
