Crazy flash flooding in Boulder, Colorado right now. We went out to check it out, car got flooded, abandoned the car, walked to the Virtika warehouse and got tubes, and went tubing down the bike path through Boulder at 3am. Good times.

Flash floods aren't uncommon in the front range of Colorado, especially after the fires we've had the past few years. This flood however, shattered records in terms of rainfall and the fires the past few years really didn't help to stop the runoff or landslides at all.

The flood killed a pretty good friend of mine. I know it looks fun but I don't want to hear about any NS'ers trying to dick around in the creeks as this second storm hits tonight that don't make it out.

This is about 10 minutes from my house this morning. I didn't take this video, but people have been posting it.

Shit is crazy right now... All I want to do is make it through an episode of Honey Boo Boo without being interrupted by a flash flood warning.

True. The federal aid just announced does however offer lots of help.
