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

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Localized wind gusts over 50 mph will be possible along the lower
eastern slopes of the southern Sangre De Cristo mountains and
southern I-25 corridor through mid-afternoon. Patchy blowing dust
will be possible as well as strong cross winds for light weight
high profile vehicles traveling on north-south oriented roads.

As dry air spreads in from the Desert Southwest, high fire danger
will return to much of southern CO. Winds gusting up to 40 mph
across the lower elevations and 50 mph across the higher
mountains, combined with humidity values below 15 percent will
lead to conditions favorable for rapid fire growth and spread.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday

High Fire Danger conditions will likely return to much of the
mountains, valleys and portions of the plains for Tuesday through
Friday as gusty afternoon winds and low humidity values return each
day. Temperatures will crest over 100 again by late week across most
of the southeast plains with the possibility of critical fire
weather conditions across all of the southeast plains.

Isolated thunderstorms will be possible Tuesday afternoon and early
evening across Kiowa, Bent, Prowers and Baca counties to the east of
a dry line. Large hail and damaging winds will be the primary storm
risks.

Thunderstorm chances will increase again next weekend, especially
into Sunday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather spotters will not be needed this afternoon or tonight.
