I know we have a few members in the areas that were hit with heavy rains and flooding. Hoping you all are OK!

Thanks for asking. I'm in the Branson, Hollister area that had flooding along Turkey Creek. It went up 15' in 20 minutes. We live up on the cliff road so other than the normal loss of driveway (happens every time we get a big rain) we are fine.

Glad to hear you're OK, Float On. I had heard Branson mentioned and I knew you were in that area.

That was only a small area near the Waldo Canyon burn, though some of the video is amazing. I'm not sure anyone here lives near there, though maybe some folks have relatives/friends affected. I can believe the 15' in 20 min, though. Why they are called "flash" floods!
