US-SPACE-WEATHER-STORM-FLOODS
This NOAA obtained September 13, 2013 shows an image from the Suomi NPP satellite's VIIRS sensor from the evening of September 11, 2013, showing the storm system that has devastated towns in the foothills of the Rockies in central Colorado. Flash flood watches and warnings are in effect throughout central Colorado, citing excessive runoff causing flash flooding of creeks and streams, roads and roadside culverts. The heavy rains could also trigger rock slides or debris flows in steep terrain. Major amounts of rain over the last several days have saturated soils in many foothill and Urban Corridor locations and additional rainfall in these locations today and tonight will only exacerbate an already serious situation. The High Park and Four Mile burn areas will be especially susceptible to the heavy rains. This image was taken around 2015Z on September 11, 2013.
