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.

Expect another day of scattered showers and storms this morning
through the evening. Some storms could be strong to severe with
large hail, damaging winds, and flash flooding the primary threats
of the strongest storms. Fresh burn scars, saturated soils and steep
terrain will be especially conducive to flash flooding and debris
flows.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday.

Drier conditions move in Sunday behind the departing storm system
with fall-like temperatures. Terrain-based storms will be possible
mid week as a disturbance moves across the north. Otherwise,
conditions look to remain dry through much of the coming week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation may be needed.
