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

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop over the higher
terrain this afternoon and evening, with a few strong to severe
storms developing in the more unstable airmass across the immediate
adjacent plains and the far southeast plains through the evening.
The best timing for severe storms will be between 2 pm and 9 pm,
with strong damaging wind gusts in excess of 60 mph and large hail
of 1 to 2 inches in diameter, being the main threats from storms.
There is also a small chance of a tornado, mainly north of the
Highway 50 Corridor. In addition, locally heavy rainfall will
bring the potential for flash flooding, especially for areas which
saw abundant rain in the past few days.

In addition, critical fire weather conditions are expected for
the San Luis and Upper Arkansas River Valleys, with a Red Flag
Warning in place from 11 am to 7 pm.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday

Strong to severe storms will again be possible Thursday through
Friday across the eastern plains, with large hail and damaging
winds the primary hazards. Otherwise, typical Summer thunderstorms
are expected across the valleys and mountains, with small hail
and gusty outflow winds expected. More widespread and substantial
critical fire weather conditions are expected to return this
weekend and into early next as dry and windy conditions return.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

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