The wider storm
An upper-level pattern which allowed for a sufficient mid-level monsoonal moisture plume to be established over the region aided in the development of storms, which produced heavy rainfall and lead to some heavy amounts of rain and minor flash flooding from the 7th thru 10th of August. A severe storm which developed over Teller County also allowed for a rare tornado to occur over high terrain, just NNE of Cripple Creek, on the 9th of August.
Began near Creede (37.8500, -106.9300).
