Weather in Colorado’s high country can change quickly and dramatically. A balmy 70-degree day can turn stormy with hail and high winds in a matter of minutes. ... These storms, caused by rising warm air masses, are marked by heavy rain, hail, and lightning. [1]

Here in Colorado, lightning is the number one life threatening weather hazard. Between 1959 and 1994, lightning killed 394 people. Colorado ranks number 11 for lightning deaths in the United States. [2]
