Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Grand Junction, CO (KGJT), launched 00:00Z, 0.4 hours before the alert went out and 323 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Pueblo CO 541 PM MDT Thu Jul 23 2026 .KEY MESSAGES... - Flash flood threat continues through this evening as widespread showers and thunderstorms are expected across the region. - Hot temperatures continue this weekend, along with mountain rain. && .SHORT TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/... Issued at 239 PM MDT Thu Jul 23 2026 Tonight: Active weather is expected heading into Thursday evening for parts of south central and southeastern Colorado. A wave will be passing over the region during the evening hours, bringing a modest uptick in forcing and support. These factors, in combination with high moisture in place, will allow for scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms to develop during the evening hours and into the early overnight hours. The greatest coverage of precipitation is expected across the eastern plains though, where outflows from earlier storms will help to initiate further storm development. Heavy rain, frequent lighting, and strong outflow winds to around 50 mph will be possible with any more organized thunderstorm. With that all said, as the wave pushes east and exits, any showers and storms across the area are expected to dissipate during the mid overnight hours, with dry conditions by Friday morning. Outside of all of that, mostly cloudy skies early tonight with give way to mostly clear skies by Friday morning as the wave exits, with winds remaining light outside of storms, generally less than 10 mph. Looking at temperatures, another mild July night is anticipated given the high moisture content. Lows for the plains will be in the mid 60s, in the mid 50s to low 60s for the valleys, and in the mid 40s to low 50s for the mountains. Tomorrow: For Friday, active weather continues for south central and southeastern Colorado. With the shortwave gone, the ridge of high pressure will quickly reestablish itself as the dominant synoptic feature around the four corners region. Given this, weak and nebulous flow and support will be in place for south central and southeastern Colorado. However, abundant moisture will remain in place, and this, along with diurnal terrain circulations, will allow for scattered to numerous afternoon showers and storms to blossom along the higher terrain. In addition, some spillage across the valleys is anticipated as outflows push off the terrain, though generally lesser in coverage, with more isolated to scattered showers and storms. The plains are expected to remain mostly dry, though can't rule out an isolated shower or storm along the I-25 corridor area. Beyond all of that, mostly clear skies early will become partly cloudy during the afternoon hours, with winds still remaining fairly light, around and less than 10 mph, outside of thunderstorms. As for temperatures, another warm day is in store for south central and southeastern Colorado. The plains will warm into the mid to upper 90s, the valleys into the 80s to low 90s, and the mountains into the upper 50s to mid 70s. && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... Issued at 1229 AM MDT Thu Jul 23 2026 This Weekend Onwards... As the upper high moves overhead, flow weakens aloft. Forcing for storms will significantly weaken, though recycling monsoon moisture will be plentiful enough to keep afternoon showers and storms going over the mountains. Meanwhile, the plains will dry out again, with triple-digit temperatures returning. Current long-range guidance suggests a wetter and potentially cooler (or at least less hot) pattern as we move into next week. && .AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY/... Issued at 537 PM MDT Thu Jul 23 2026 Ongoing showers and thunderstorms will diminish through mid evening, with the likelihood of any thunderstorms quickly lowering. Do think a stray shower with limited impacts will remain possible, and so have kept a VCSH at all sites this evening. Dry and VFR conditions are then expected for the remainder of the period. Outflow boundaries have dictated the winds this past afternoon, but with limited precip development this evening, this should help winds lighten and become more diurnally driven, if not light and variable this evening. && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Flash Flood Watch until midnight MDT tonight for COZ079-080- 086. && SHORT TERM...SIMCOE LONG TERM...GARBEROGLIO AVIATION...RODRIGUEZ

Best coverage will be over and near the mountains, with more scattered precipitation over the eastern plains. Biggest concern for today will be flash flooding, mainly over the Aspen Acres and Willow burn areas, along with any other susceptible areas like the Chalk Cliffs, alongside low-lying urban areas. Heavy rainfall will be possible with any storms. One or two stronger thunderstorms may be possible over the eastern plains later this afternoon, with gusty outflow to 60 mph and hail up to 1 inch in diameter. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday Showers and storms will continue over the higher terrain on Friday, with little to no convection expected over the eastern plains. However, if a storm moves over a burn scar flash flooding will still be a concern. Mountain rain will continue throughout the weekend, though the plains will remain generally dry and hot with temperatures over 100 degrees. As of now, this pattern looks to persist into early next week. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be possible over portions of the region. GARBEROGLIO/GARBEROGLIO
