we've been lucky for the most part here: our bike paths have stayed above the flash floods but I still have to cross the street gutters which are "cricks" as we used to call them in Indiana and the bike path is so full of debris I went out today and shovelled one section of it coz the loose gravel/rocks was making it unsafe to ride through.

Just as a footnote: New Mexico was 256% above our avg rainfall for the month of July and - the last time I saw - 234% above for Aug.....we have goat head thornbushes that have become hedges due to the rain and when they thorn out - we are going to be in Big Trouble!!
