Rain

How’s everyone fairing on the west slope?

Here in the SW, significant rain every day in the high country. Very lush.

Widespread heavy showers in the lower country. A pretty good monsoon so far ?

 

[1989Cohunter]

Here in silt it absolutely hammered. Definitely not quite the doom and gloom I was expecting.

Palisade got it’s first significant rain in may months, 1.38” last night. The Grand Mesa has been very wet and the Colbran side is getting pounded right now.

Not the west slope but we finally got a gully washer a couple nights ago along the north front range

Routt county rains have me behind on exterior painting work. Wife is getting very stressed but I don't mind the half days...

I’ve spent a ton of time on the Unc this month and afternoon showers have been the norm.
It’s been really wet after the 4th weekend.

Great to hear! Hopefully it gives the firefighters a break along with helping out the wildlife. Keep it coming!

Good rain today again. Good unless you live near Glenwood canyon. That is a mess over there.

I have a job in vail, driving from silt there sucks. But I’m glad to see rain.

 

[coloradoman]

You live in Silt?
Want a different job?

 

[1989Cohunter]

Yes I do, however I plan to live in Idaho By spring.

The monsoons are kicking in around Rangely. Couple of crazy downpours that have made for some awful flooding and property damages. Some of the rains have returned with a vengeance. In the Meeker area they have experienced more rain that we have extending well into the high country. Drought ain't over by a long shot though.

Raining pretty good here right now. First time we’ve had real mud in months.

That stuff up in the canyon was pretty wild. 100 people had to spend the night in their cars. Just waiting for a boulder to crush them.

I-70 mudslides force motorists to spend night in Hanging Lake tunnel

Several people had to spend the night in the Hanging Lake tunnel, on Interstate 70 about midway through Glenwood Canyon, after mudslides shut down the interstate Thursday evening.

Friday and Saturday were miserable days to be trimmin trails in the burn. Felt more like September up there. Time for some new rain gear for me.

I run a business in Glenwood and rely on shipments from Denver pretty much daily. It's hard to schedule anything without knowing when supplies will show up. I'm betting after this last slide that the Glenwood canyon will be closed for at least a month.
