Severe storms with heavy rain move across Colorado's Front Range; hail and flooding possible

Severe monsoon storms with heavy rain are moving across Colorado's Front Range. Downtown Denver was getting some of its heaviest rainfall of the year on Friday afternoon.

Severe thunderstorm warnings and flood advisories or warnings are in effect in some areas. The FAA also ordered a ground stop at Denver International Airport.

Hail and strong winds are possible with the stormy weather.

By 3 p.m., hail had already fallen south of Denver in the Castle Rock area.

The rain in Denver is expected to linger into the late evening. That means fans of the Savannah Bananas should bring rain gear to Coors Field, and fans of Zach Bryan should do the same at Empower Field at Mile High.

Saturday will be a First Alert Weather Day for the possibility of more severe storms in the Denver metro area in the afternoon.
