Severe thunderstorms with very large hail and damaging winds will be possible across portions of northeast Colorado. There is considerable uncertainty as to the occurrence of severe weather, but the highest risk area would be over the eastern plains and Palmer Divide area, roughly along and east of a line from Fort Morgan to Kiowa. It's not impossible that a couple severe storms could develop as far west as the I-25 Corridor and Denver metro area. Very large hail to around 2 inches in diameter and damaging winds up to 70 mph will be possible from the isolated but strongest storms. There is just a low risk of a tornado. The main period of storm development should be between 2 pm and 8 pm, but could last as late as 10 pm depending on how the thunderstorms evolve. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday Wednesday afternoon and evening, there is a chance of thunderstorms focused mainly around and south of I-70, especially over the Palmer Divide. Thursday, there is a chance of storms again and there may be a few stronger to severe storms over the eastern plains. Drier and considerably hotter weather is expected for this weekend, and elevated to critical fire weather conditions may set back in across much of northeast Colorado. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will likely be required after 2 pm across portions of the plains.
