This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for northwest Colorado, southwest
Colorado, west central Colorado, east central Utah, northeast Utah
and southeast Utah.
.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.
Hot, dry, and windy conditions continue today. Critical fire weather
conditions will be widespread today. The strongest winds shift east
today and Red Flag Warnings are confined to the Colorado side of the
CWA. Localized critical fire weather is still expected across eastern
Utah. Winds will gust 30 to 40 mph around the region today, then
diminish around sunset. A few isolated showers are possible in
northeast Utah and northwest Colorado along an approaching frontal
boundary. Gusty outflow winds to around 45 mph are the primary threat
with these storms, which will quickly diminish towards sunset too.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday.
Deeper moisture returns to the region Sunday, mostly north of highway
50. Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop Sunday
afternoon. These will be very localized and bring the threat of
lightning and gusty outflow winds, as well as some small hail.
Unsettled conditions remain in place through the week, with showers
and storms spreading southward Monday and beyond. Temperatures are
expected to remain well above average this week, with a few
deviations near storms and showers.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
