Severe Weather on Monday...

As I enjoy the Sunday night lineup on ABC, some in Colorado are 'enjoying' a blizzard! Earlier today, visibility was very low with blowing snow and cold temperatures. All of this extreme weather is part of the storm system that will be affecting our weather tomorrow...

Not much has changed in our thinking since Josh posted last. It still appears severe weather will start to affect our area sometime around the noon-time hour and last through the overnight hours. While large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes will all be a threat, heavy rain and flash flooding will be likely as storms could 'train' over the same area. The lakes, rivers, and ground are already very saturated from recent rains.

New model data is rolling in as I post. I know Josh will be back later on tonight with a more detailed look at things. At this point, it doesn't look like a 'classic' severe weather set up by any means, but there are several factors that are there that look very impressive, such as a negatively tilted trough, strong low-level jet, etc. I'm running a little short on time, so I will make this brief, however I urge everyone tomorrow to stay close to a source of weather information, and stay tuned here to WTOK and keep a check on the 'blog for more updates throughout the day and night if necessary.
