Tornado warnings are currently active for Logan, Morgan, and Washington counties in Colorado, with conditions expected to persist until 5 PM local time on June 25, 2026. The region faces a significant threat from severe weather.
Alongside the direct warning, a tornado watch encompasses a broad section of the Denver metropolitan area extending into the northeast. This watch is slated to remain in effect until 11 PM local time. A concurrent severe thunderstorm watch is also active for the same vicinity, lasting until 10 PM.
In response to the imminent danger posed by these weather systems, the Federal Aviation Administration has issued a ground stop order for Denver International Airport.

Residents within the affected counties are advised to take immediate safety precautions and monitor official weather advisories. The severe weather watches indicate the potential for widespread hazardous conditions across a considerable portion of eastern Colorado.
