Thunderstorms Return Friday, Weak Tornadoes Possible
Scattered thunderstorms, a few of which may be strong, will roll out across eastern Colorado Friday.
A flash flood watch will be in effect late Friday afternoon into the evening for Kit Carson and Yuma counties in Colorado and Cheyenne and Sherman counties in Kansas. Those areas have recently received heavy rains, and more slow-moving storms are expected Friday. Additional heavy rainfall increases the prospects for flooding, especially for the Kansas counties.
Temperatures across eastern Colorado will range from the 60s in mountain areas to the upper 70s and low 80s over the plains.
Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will return Saturday and Sunday, remaining mostly in the mountains. A few may spread to the plains, bringing lightning and gusty winds. Temperatures will cool a few degrees Saturday before rebounding Sunday.
For the coming week, look for continuing – though limited - chances of showers and thunderstorms. Check back for updates.
