What the National Weather Service wrote

Highway 149 was closed due to mudslides that occurred between Elk Road and County Road 149A.

The wider storm

Abundant monsoon moisture remained in place across the Western Slope. As a result, another round of widespread showers and thunderstorms developed across the area with many storms producing heavy rain. This led to several reports of flash flooding and debris flows across portions of west-central and southwest Colorado.

Began near Powderhorn (38.1700, -107.3000).
