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

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Severe thunderstorms are near certain today across the eastern
plains of Colorado. Large to very large hail, damaging winds and
isolated tornadoes will be possible.

Several rounds of thunderstorms are expected. The storms during
the mid to late afternoon time period will be more isolated, and
will be capable of large hail and damaging winds. the best chance
of thunderstorms, some which will be severe, will generally be
north of US50 and generally east of I-25.

During this evening and into tonight, additional rounds of
thunderstorms are near certain, and some of these storms could be
severe. Additionally, the severe threat will increase along, and
immediately west of the I-25 corridor. This includes the Pueblo
and Colorado Springs metropolitan areas. These storms will then
move east over the plains during the evening and overnight hours.
Large to very large hail, damaging winds and a tornado or two will
be possible. Since numerous storms are expected, flash flooding
of flood prone areas will be possible.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday

Severe storms are possible again Sunday afternoon and evening,
mainly from I-25 eastward across the plains. Large hail up 2
inches in diameter and damaging winds over 60 mph will be the
main storm hazards. Thunderstorm coverage and strength decrease
on Monday, with the best chance for storms along the southern I-25
corridor. After Monday, isolated thunderstorms are possible each
afternoon and evening through the week, mainly over the mountains.
Most of these storms will be weak and short-lived, producing
lightning and gusty winds but only brief rainfall.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will
be imminent.
