An early evening thunderstorm Thursday dumped more than an inch of rain on downtown Salida and caused mud and water to wash across county roads south of the city.
While the storm dropped 1.11 inches of rain downtown, 1.71 inches was reported by residents at homes along CRs 110 and 111.
Friday evening Chaffee County Communications Center issued an Everclear emergency notification call warning residents along County Roads 107, 108, 110 and 111 and other nearby roads of flooding.
County road crews were called out at about 9 p.m. and worked until about 2 a.m. Friday to clear rocks, logs, stumps and other debris to make roads passable.
