Storms this Weekend

Elevated fire weather conditions are expected this afternoon across the plains. There is potential for an isolated shower this afternoon around the Palmer Divide, but most of the rain should evaporate before hitting the ground, creating gusty winds.

Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible in the afternoon and evening, both Saturday and Sunday. A few of these storms could become strong to severe. The highest chances of severe storms are in the northeast Colorado plains, with lower chances further west.
