ESFGJT Anomalous moisture has become established across portions of eastern Utah and western Colorado. Rainfall rates of 1-2 inches per hour will be possible with the stronger storms. These rates could lead to flash flooding and debris flows especially over recent burn scars. Storms over the last few days have helped prime lower levels of the atmosphere and saturate the ground where rain was observed. Several locations across southwest Colorado reported over 0.5 inches of rain within 30 minutes; which is more than sufficient to create issues in our steep, rocky terrain that is already susceptible to flash flooding. This environment also triggers heightened awareness over recent (or actively burning) fires, due to the burnt ground's inability of absorbing moisture under heavy rainfall. As such, we continue to emphasize the potential for flash flooding and debris flows in this regime. As a reminder: Keep an eye on our forecasts through the end of the week and stay tuned for updated hydrology alerts if visiting or if you reside below vulnerable terrain to flash flooding and/or debris flows. Storms across the west develop quickly, leaving little room for lead time in flashy terrain.
