This whole storm has been phenominal in how it has moved or lack there of and dumped these amounts. From reports I've been hearing, most of the houses in the Thompson Canyon are gone that were anywhere close to the river. Highway 34 and 36 are severely damaged and will take major repairs. In parts there is no highway.

I have a cousin in Estes Park and nobody can get in touch with them. Cell phone service is out up there. Most of the unaccounted for are probably in a similar situation as them.

Flooding down the south platte is getting closer to the area I live in. The are evacuating several small towns that are 40 miles away. I don't live in the valley so I am safe. If my house goes under water there are plenty of people in trouble .
