The Denver Post tracks the widespread flooding along the urban Front Range:
Massive flash flooding across the Front Range of Colorado has resulted in at least two deaths, the destruction of multiple homes and several road closures Thursday morning.
The first reported fatality occurred from a collapsed structure in Jamestown said Andrew Barth, spokesman for the Boulder Office of Emergency Management.
Rain continued to pour throughout the night and morning, causing mud slides and rock slides.
And if this hair-raising rescue video from a washed-out road near Broomfield this morning doesn't make you appreciate your local first responders, we don't know what will:
Everybody stay safe and dry out there.
