A funnel cloud was spotted by several people near Yampa.

The wider storm

Abundant monsoon moisture remained across Western Colorado. This led to another round of showers and thunderstorms across much of the region. Storms were slow moving and produced heavy rain. As a result of the heavy rain, some flash flooding and debris flows occurred in Mesa and Eagle counties. Additionally, gusty outflow winds in excess of 58 mph occurred across portions of the Western Slope. The passage of a weak trough across northwest Colorado resulted in some stronger storms. One storm in Routt County produced a funnel cloud.

Began near Yampa (40.1400, -106.8900).
