Where some people have found the daily storms to be a hindrance, it has really benefited the whole state that we received so much moisture. According to the Pueblo Chieftain, "...with the exception of Baca and Prowers counties, and a small portion of Bent, Southeastern Colorado is now drought-free."
The effects of the overflow of water was almost immediately noticeable. Being a resident of Pueblo West, these photos of Beaver Creek are prime examples of how much water has fallen recently. Normally this is a dry creek bed, the but now it's quick moving and 3 to 4 feet deep.
make this May the sixth wettest month in Pueblo’s recorded history. - See more at: http://www.chieftain.com/news/weather/3645191-120/pueblo-inches-month-precipitation#sthash.DmaA7DHk.dpuf
