This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Strong to severe thunderstorms are expected across the plains
this afternoon into the evening hours. Development initially over
and near the southeast mountains will move into the I-25 corridor
this afternoon, and then into the remaining plains through the
evening hours. The strongest storms will be capable of producing
hail of two to two and a half inches and wind gusts to 70 mph. The
risk of tornadoes doesn't appear to be as high today, though
still can't rule out one or two anywhere across the plains today.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

Strong to severe storms will remain possible across the plains
Saturday and again Sunday. All hazards consisting of large hail,
damaging winds, and a few tornadoes will be possible.

Elevated fire weather conditions are expected over the
Continental Divide Region, San Luis Valley and Upper Arkansas
River Valley. Gusty southwest winds and low daytime humidities are
expected through at least Sunday. Next week, low daytime
humidities are expected, but winds will become lighter.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will
be likely over portions of the region.
