Seedhouse Road in Routt County northeast of Clark was closed between mile markers 3 and 5 as a result of flooding.

The wider storm

Accelerated snowmelt from a near-record snowpack due to above normal temperatures produced high and fast flow on drainages in several counties across the Western Slope. As a result, flooding compromised various low-lying roads and areas. This included some lanes along I-70 west of Fruita, Colorado.
