Rio Grande at 5:30 a.m. this morning running about 4 feet higher than the night before.
We got a major thunderstorm at midnight last night that dumped almost 3/4 of an inch of rain. When I got up, the rain gauge showed double the amount of rain from when I went to bed. We now have 1.43 inches of rain for the month. I did another five-mile walk in the rain again this morning.

The Rio Grande at 7:00 a.m. this morning up another 2 or more feet from 5:30 a.m.

The place where I stepped down to take the 5:30 a.m. photo was under water at 7:00 a.m.

Jake met me at the gate and got a short ride to my parking spot when I got home this afternoon.

The river had gone down about 4 feet by dusk. The place I step down to take photos was no longer underwater, but too muddy to step on, unless you’re a dog.

Water was still flow the full width of the river at dusk.
