Initial storm development is expected by late morning over the mountains, spreading east into the Plains this afternoon and evening. Locally heavy rainfall and lightning will be possible over the mountains. As storms move into the Plains, a couple of strong to severe storms are possible. Additional threats across the Plains will be hail to near 1 inch in diameter and gusty winds to near 60 mph. Flash flooding will be possible on area burn scars and in urban areas. This is especially true for areas that have seen heavy rainfall over the past few days. Remember, to turn around, do not drown! Flash flooding in and near burn scars can be especially dangerous due to debris filled streams. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday Active weather will continue on Sunday. Showers and thunderstorms will develop initially over the mountains, spreading east across the Plains during the afternoon and evening hours. Flash flooding will be possible on area burn scars. In addition to the flash flood threat, one or two storms may become strong to severe with hail near one inch in diameter and winds gusting to near 60 mph. More isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected for the upcoming work week. The most likely areas to see this activity will be over the mountains, with weak steering flows keeping the activity tied to the terrain. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be possible over southeast and south central Colorado this afternoon and evening. 12/12
