Breaking it Down: By the Numbers
Well, buckle up weather warriors, because we've got the deets. According to the official folks at the National Weather Service (you know, the ones with the fancy equipment that doesn't involve sticking your finger out the window), Denver saw a whopping 3.56 inches of rain in the last 24 hours (as of July 4th, 2024). That's enough to fill a kiddie pool... several kiddie pools, actually.
But wait, there's more! Some areas around Denver reported even higher totals. We're talking rivers of rain in places like Sedalia and Deer Trail, with reports exceeding 3.5 inches!
