FORECAST: Full forecast
ALERTS: Latest Colorado weather alerts

This storm system will continue to slog across Colorado Thursday with more moisture and instability and that will result in another round of heavy showers and storms, with the storms again reaching strong to severe levels.

With the rain we have already had and the rain forecast to come, flooding will also be a very real possibility, especially in the burn scar areas.

Severe weather broke out all over Colorado's eastern plains Wednesday with Tornado Watches and Warnings, Severe Thunderstorm Watches and Warnings and Flood Watches, Warnings and Advisories all posted at one time or another.  

The thunderstorms brought rain and hail to the Denver metro area Wednesday afternoon, and at least one tornado to the plains. Tornado Warnings were issued Wednesday for areas to the south and north of Denver's airport.
