STES PARK, Colo. — As Colorado mountain towns cut off for days by
massive flooding slowly reopened, shopkeepers in this gateway to
majestic Rocky Mountain National Park worked to both clean up and remove
salvageable goods from ravaged businesses for fear the swollen Big
Thompson River would rise again.
Throughout the flooded region,
isolated storms are possible early this week but it will be nothing like
the devastating floods last week. Here are the latest headlines:
- 5 people confirmed dead
- 1,500 homes destroyed and 17,500 damaged, according to Colo. Office of Emergency Management
- 1,200+ people are unaccounted for
- Thunderstorms possible Monday and Tuesday in flooded areas
