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

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Warm and breezy conditions will once again develop critical fire
weather conditions across portions of south central and southeast
Colorado, with a Red Flag Warning in place from 11 am to 7 pm
across the Central mountains, as well as across Pueblo county.

Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms can be expected this
afternoon and evening, with the best coverage expected across the
Southern mountains. The main storm threats today will be lighting and
gusty winds up to 45 mph, with small hail possible with the strongest
storms. Showers and a few embedded thunderstorms, will remain possible
overnight, especially across the Southeast mountains and plains.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday

Much cooler temperatures behind a passing cold front can be expected on
Sunday, especially across Eastern Colorado. Further west, scattered
showers and thunderstorms developing across the higher terrain Sunday
afternoon, will continue to spread east across the plains Sunday night.

A slow warming and drying trend remains in the offing for early next week,
with enough moisture in place to support the potential for a few stronger
storms Monday and Tuesday. Increasing westerly flow aloft into the middle
of the week will bring well above seasonal temperatures and the return of
critical fire weather conditions through the end of the week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

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