Extended outlook forecast:
Thanks to saturated ground from recent rainfall, it will be easy to see flash flood warnings in southern Colorado this week. Avoid creeks that are running fast, and do not drive through a flooded roadway.
Thunderstorms will remain in the forecast through the end of the week and into Labor Day weekend. The good news is that drier air will start to work its way back into southern Colorado, so storms will be much more isolated over the weekend and shorter-lived. Right now, storm chances for Labor Day Monday are lower, especially outside of the mountains.
