There is a slight chance for hail up to 1 inch diameter and outflow winds to 60 MPH from one or two storm cells. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday An upper level trough will allow some showers and storms on Thursday though coverage should lower in the evening hours as it moves eastwards. Friday and Saturday looks relatively dry before another shot of monsoonal moisture moves in causing an increase in afternoon and evening convection. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not expected today or tonight, however spotters are encouraged to relay rainfall amounts or any observed flooding to the National Weather Service in Grand Junction.
