About 200 homes and businesses got a reverse 911 call telling them of the voluntary evacuation just before midnight Sunday.

Television video on Monday morning showed an irrigation ditch filling up close to the edge of a major road and a park covered by water.

Other flood advisories and watches are in effect in western Colorado as the warm weather melts the mountain snowpack. The Elk River in Routt County and most rivers and streams in Jackson and Grand counties are among the waterways at risk of flooding.
