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

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

One or two severe thunderstorms are possible over extreme
southeast Colorado this afternoon, mainly across Baca County. Hail
to 1 inch in diameter, wind gusts to 60 mph and cloud to ground
lightening will be the main hazards from these storms. Elsewhere,
an isolated brief thunderstorm will be possible over the southern
Sangre de Cristo Range and along the New Mexico border. These
storms will likely produce gusty winds up to 45 mph and occasional
cloud to ground lightning, but little rainfall.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday

Isolated high based showers and thunderstorms and associated
gusty winds will be possible Sunday.

Moisture will increase over the interior mountains on Monday, and
scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible. Due to the
continued dry conditions over the mountains, fire starts from
cloud to ground lightning flashes will be possible.

Tuesday the moisture will continue to increase over the district,
especially over the interior mountains. Numerous showers and
thunderstorms will be possible and quite a bit of cloud to
ground lightning will be likely.

It is forecast to be drier and warmer during the latter part of
next week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

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