Gusty winds near 60 mph and hail up to half dollar size will be possible, and locally heavy rainfall may occur on area burn scars leading to a flash flood risk. More isolated thunderstorms are expected over the Continental Divide, into the San Luis and Upper Arkansas Valleys. These storms will produce gusty winds and lightning, but little rainfall, which may lead to fire starts given the dry fuels in the region. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday Isolated to scattered afternoon thunderstorms are then expected Wednesday and Thursday, with the best coverage over and near the higher terrain. Storms will be higher based, producing more gusty outflow winds and less wetting rainfall. This will lead to possible critical fire weather conditions, especially for areas along the Continental Divide. For Friday and into Saturday, slightly cooler temperatures and a better coverage of wetting rain showers and thunderstorms can be expected, as available moisture increases across the area ahead of passing an upper trough and its associated cold front moving across the eastern plains. Warmer, drier and breezy southwesterly flow across the area on Sunday and Monday will allow for less thunderstorm coverage and lead to more critical fire weather conditions across the area. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be likely across the eastern mountains and southeast plains this afternoon and evening. $$ 10/23
