How the homeless stay dry. Boulder Creek Flood, Colorado, Sept 12, 2013
That’s certainly what they will be calling it. If they don’t, they should. We have broken just about every imaginable record for rainfall over the past three days and still the rain comes.
I was out and about just a little today when the rain slacked off a bit. In the places where I captured these images I could see that I was looking at water levels that had fallen considerably from some 12 hours before. The debris lines and flattened grasses were good evidence. And apparently it looks like that was just a low cycle–things look to be on the rise again tonight.

I should have told you that I had a deal with Mother Nature about the weather. I forgot to tell mother nature that our deal was off. . Period sorry. Forgive me please, love, dad
Thanks for visiting, Dad! No one can make deals with Mother Nature, I’m afraid–she has her own agenda!
Great Pics Joder.
Hey, James, thanks for visiting! Hope you survived the flood waters OK.
Fabulous pictures. Amazing that you could get these–much better shots than any of the tv channels or even the weather channel. Stay safe.
Thanks!
