Rain may be an exaggeration, at least for Boulder. We've had showers, lasting up to about ten minutes at a stretch, and often accompanied by lightning -- which is more of a threat than usual for us just now. Maybe the rain was longer up where LEJ is. But these little cloudbursts have happened 3 days in a row, if I remember right. I guess they help some. Waterways and lakes are still very low. But I think the two big fires are pretty well contained now. I don't think they're causing traffic or travelling problems unless you try to drive across or through one of them. I'd avoid Glenwood Springs for a while.
