Well, it's been another wet one here, but it looks as if the pattern that has caused all the trouble here has finally started shift and give us a break from the rain. The bad stuff isn't over yet as many areas are still flooded, roads and bridges washed out, towns wiped out and the possibility that there may be more fatalities once they begin to sift through the debris. There is also the fact that these flood waters are making their way downstream and is taking several days to reach the towns and communities there in eastern Colorado. The media does not say much about them as they are small towns and not as important as what happens along the front range to them. My friends live out there.
Today was intense as the weatherman had spoke of two possible models of what would happen, and one of those was pointing a very big gun at my area and up north towards those areas already hit hard. When heavy rains started falling at around noon, I was concerned. The local channels offered little information as it is football day and they weren't going to pre-empt any of that.
I did see quite a bit of rain and we had some creeks overflow with street flooding, and in the parks and open spaces. The Broomfield Enterprise classified it as "minor difficulties" and compared to the devastation north of me, I would say my city was lucky.
In the meantime, I have been doing a bit here and there on the Panzer, but no great strides forward. Also began another little project I will reveal later.
Hope all of you are well, Mikey with your ouchie and Ken with what is going on with you. Hopefully things will calm down for us all and we can get back to the real business of working on our projects.
