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

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to develop this afternoon,
mainly along and east of Interstate 25.  A few storms could become
strong, with hail to half an inch and wind gusts to 50 mph in
addition to locally heavy rainfall.  These thunderstorms will track
east across the Plains clearing into Kansas by Friday morning.

A note about the Aspen Acres burn scar.  Confidence is low in
thunderstorm development over the burn scar.  But, if a cell does
happen to develop, locally heavy rainfall may accompany the
thunderstorm, and flash flooding may be possible.  Given the
isolated nature of the expected convection, opted not to issue a
Flash Flood Watch for the burn scar this afternoon.  Keep an eye on
any thunderstorms that do happen to develop.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Tuesday

Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to develop across the Eastern
Mountains on Friday afternoon and track southeast into the
Interstate 25 corridor overnight.  A couple storms could become
strong to severe with wind gusts near 60 mph and one inch hail.
Locally heavy rainfall could lead to flash flooding on area burn
scars.

Drier, hotter conditions arrive over the weekend into early next
week.  Temperatures on the Plains will climb into the upper 90s to
lower 100s on Sunday and Monday.  Take precautions for the returning
heat.

Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to ramp back up for mid next
week across the region, along with the flash flood potential for
area burn scars.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

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