What the National Weather Service wrote

A CoCoRaHS observer southwest of Redvale reported flooding as a result of heavy rain from thunderstorms. Over an inch of rain was recorded, which led to partial erosion of the observer's irrigation ditch.

The wider storm

Remnants from Tropical Storm Harold lifted across the Desert Southwest. This, combined with already abundant subtropical moisture, resulted in widespread showers and thunderstorms across western Colorado. Storms were slow moving and produced heavy rain. As a result of the heavy rain, some flooding and debris flows occurred in portions of Gunnison, Garfield, Mesa, and Montezuma counties.

Began near Egnar (37.9240, -108.6540).
