Reports on Colorado Forum Guys?

Sun is shining right now. The worst areas seem to be around the foothills. Boulder is flooded and Estes Park is a disaster from what I hear. A few friends of mine had their basements flood. Interstate 25 north bound is closed and several bridges are out around the foothill areas. The weather channel says it should rain through the weekend and then be over.

 Creek down the street is overflowing but I think I'm safe for now.

Did have a small flood in basement ,nothing damaged. Layout curtains got wet .

  Outside G scale layout washed out in some parts. I'll have to reballast the tracks.

It just depends on where you are, as some of the storms have been intensely focused.  The people in Boulder, Longmont, Estes Park, Lyons and folks in the canyons, like the Big Thompson Canyon, have been absolutely devastated.

As of last night, my basement was completely dry, but two blocks away, a trickle creek had been transformed into a raging torrent of mud.  It is really, really bad for some folks.

I live in Aurora and work in Loveland (IT Contractor). When the spillways were opened for Big Thompson I was encourage to head out. On the hour plus drive home on every bridge that I crossed you see how swelled the rivers and creeks were I was amazed as only a week ago we had temperature in the 90s and there was still relatively little precip. This morning the word went out not to come in and about an hour later CDOT was closing portions of I-25 (my route to work). As far as my house goes only rain and drizzle. 4 miles away massive flooding. I have only spoken with a handful of our TCA members in the area and they seem to be doing okay.

That seems to be the heart of it Chuck.

Batten down the hatches!

I have been unable to contact my 2 family members in Co this AM but they both live up high so probably are just sleeping in.

Has anyone heard from 'Bearlead'?  I think he lives somewhere between Denver

and Boulder.

We're in the South Denver metro area and Big Dry Creek runs through our place on the way to the Platte River.  The Big Dry Creek watershed hasn't had any of the extremely heavy rains and our creek has been high with no flooding.  The basement Run Room is still dry.  Thanks to all for thoughts and concerns.

Like a 100 year flood, Bear only checks in once in a great while...

BTW, I believe his house is high and dry and well removed from all the chaos
