Thanks for the updates. Hoping it isn’t flooded in Carlotta too. Any one know if it has started to flood there? I am trying to make it to town and back today. Thanks

Around mm7ish Hwy 36, yard flooded but NOT impacting road, may still be some water near fire hall, but clear where road was closed last time. Perhaps someone knows about the firehall.
Now according to CHP over in LoCO a car on fire as well!!! It never rains… but it certainly pours at times!!!

Good to go through Carlotta. Just came through in a dump truck. A few inches of water on road by fire hall.
Thank you.
