A line of showers and thunderstorms develop east of the Southern Rocky Mountain Front and move northeastward across the area. These storms move into a moist environment with good jet dynamics, wind shear, and instability. As a result, a severe thunderstorm watch is issued for most of the CWA. The primary thunderstorm threats are severe hail of equal to or greater than quarter size and wind gusts of up to 60 to 80 mph. Heavy downpours of rain are also expected.
