(AP) — Several tornadoes touched down as a line of severe thunderstorms swept through Colorado on Sunday, with one of the twisters hitting near a junior golf tournament and injuring a caddy. Aurora Fire Department officials said a twister touched down near the Blackstone Country Club, causing one minor injury and flipping an empty trailer. Paul Cleveland, 16, who was playing in the golf tournament, said he and two other people were riding in a golf cart when they saw a funnel cloud heading in their direction, swirling debris. The weather is expected to be quieter in Colorado Monday but thunderstorms could produce large hail, isolated tornadoes and heavy rain, which could lead to flash flooding in southern Nebraska, Kansas, northeast Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, southern Illinois, western Kentucky and northwest Tennessee.
