Had to make sand levees around the apt to keep the water out. #Boulderflood #Boulder http://twitter.com/scottracking/status/378019225563963393/photo/1 …

Earlier we built levees. Now the moat around the apt continues near Folsom & Canyon. #Boulder #Boulderflood http://twitter.com/scottracking/status/378029153921945600/photo/1 …

For perspective: If the #BoulderFlood was a snowstorm, we would have over 10 feet. @bouldercolorado @CUBoulder @bouldercolorado

The #boulderflood seemed bad from seeing a couple of tweets mixed in with cycling/transit. Opened facebook = HS people = looks bad!

Be safe boulder "Large wall of water in Fourmile Creek around 10:55 a.m., residents downstream should climb to higher ground. #boulderflood"

Is the middle of a crisis (like #coflood) really the time to start bringing up political issues? In #goodtaste wait for the waters to recede
