I've got some great pics from the Carr area looking into the storm. When I went thru them in sequence, you could see the cloud build up and actual storm rotation as a wall cloud looked like it was developing than disapated east of I25 towards the Greely area.

I was up the Poudre Canyon today.

They cleared the mudslide but the road is not yet fit for motorcycles because when the clear the road they use a front loader which leaves a LOT of dirt & mud behind.

Many mudslides in the future for the burn area.
