717 FNUS55 KPUB 150919 FWFPUB Fire Weather Planning Forecast FOR S Cntrl and Sern Colorado National Weather Service Pueblo Co 319 AM MDT Mon Jul 15 2024 .Discussion... Continued above normal temperatures with chances for showers and gusty thunderstorms are expected for today. Today`s daytime highs will be a few degrees cooler than the past several days, and thunderstorm coverage will increase across the area. This increase in coverage is due to an overall increase in moisture, especially over the high country. Relative humidity values look to remain in the 20 to +30% range over the high country today, with values in the mid teens across the plains. This will mean more chances for meaningful rainfall out of thunderstorms in the mountains today. Though today`s risk for dry lightning on the plains will be less than yesterday, it will still be a possibility, especially earlier in the day. Gusty outflow winds in excess of 60 mph will also be possible on our plains today. A cold front arrives later this evening, which will bring about the start of a much anticipated pattern change that looks to persist through the rest of the period. Severe thunderstorms and flash flooding will be possible on Tuesday, with excessive rainfall chances continuing through the end of the week. Afternoon smoke dispersion rates will be very good or better across the plains and good or better for the high country today. Rates worsen tomorrow, though many zones look to still be at least good or better, especially across the lower elevations. --- thunderstorms imply strong gusty and erratic winds --- COZ220-152215- Upper Arkansas River Valley Including Lake County and Chaffee County- 319 AM MDT Mon Jul 15 2024 .TODAY...
