Peeps in the Colorado Flooding Right Now

Everyone in Colorado doing alright? I'm in Denver and it's pretty calm, but it looks like we're getting round 2 shortly. Boulder is a mess. Some parts of highways have simply vanished. CU Boulder has closed campus today and tomorrow. Shit is pretty crazy overall. Heard on the news this is a 100 year event.

The flooding has been nuts!!
I had been in Spanish class for about 20 minutes this morning and an announcement came over the intercom that the school was closed. So I drove around Aurora looking at the different canals to check out the flooding. The streams that are normally 2 ft. wide and 6 inches deep were 20 feet wide, probably 4-5 feet deep and flowing FAST. I've always loved to check out the streams and canals after heavy rains, but I have never seen them like this.
I can't seem to find the link, but as of 7 a.m. this morning Aurora had like 6.6 inches of rain from this storm. NW Boulder had some 8.8 inches by that same time. I think it's up over 12 now.

It's fuckin bonkers out here. Spent hours this morning driving around through some of the worst of it just checking it all out. There's a possibility of a dam in Nederland breaking which would mean a 30 foot wall of water would be heading down to Boulder.

Yep! Read that too. 9 inches of rain in a 12-hour period.

People are saying the drinking water is no good to drink. The grocery store is sold out of normal water, just bought a bunch of vitamin water... Probably gonna go buy more.
