  mountains, the Sangre De Cristo mountains, central and western 
  Fremont county, the Wet mountains and Wet mountain valley and 
  Huerfano county.

* Until Midnight MDT tonight.

* The Monsoon plume will push eastward and bring another day of slow 
  moving, heavy rain producing thunderstorms to the area. Flash 
  flooding will be possible, especially considering the already 
  saturated soil conditions.  Burn scars will be especially 
  susceptible.

* Mud flows and rock slides will be possible in and near burn scars 
  and steep terrain. Creeks, streams and normally dry washes may 
  experience rapid flooding with damage to roads possible in and 
  near these drainage ways.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

The National Weather Service in Pueblo has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for Chaffee and Lake counties, the eastern San 
  Juans and La Garita mountains, the Sangre De Cristo mountains, 
  central and western Fremont county, the Wet mountains and Wet 
  mountain valley and Huerfano county.

* From Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday evening.

* A weather disturbance moving through the monsoon plume will 
  trigger more widespread showers and thunderstorms across the 
  region capable of producing very heavy rainfall on Tuesday.  With 
  the ground already saturated from recent rainfall, this will lead 
  to a significant chance for flash flooding, especially for burn 
  scars.

* Mud flows and rock slides will be possible in and near burn scars 
  and steep terrain. Creeks, streams and normally dry washes may 
  experience rapid flooding with damage to roads possible in and
