KVNF Regional Newscast: November 2, 2026

"Particularly dangerous" flooding hits southwest Colorado for the second time in just over a week. For the second time in just over a week, heavy rain flooded parts of southwest Colorado on Sunday, the Durango Herald reported. The National Weather Service in Grand Junction called it "a particularly dangerous situation" in a flood warning that, as of Sunday night, was set to run until 4:15 p.m. Monday. La Plata County's sheriff temporarily closed all county roads Sunday afternoon, and by evening areas around Durango, Ignacio and Bayfield were under evacuation orders. Closer to home, provisional U.S. Geological Survey data show the San Miguel River's flow near Placerville more than tripled on Sunday. The state says anyone who needs shelter can call 2-1-1.
