Heavy Rainfall Causes Flash Flooding in Golden?

8/22/2023 (Permalink)

We respond to water damage emergencies 24 hours a day in Jefferson County.

Flooding can occur for several reasons in Golden, and when residents need help, they can rely on our local Golden, Wheat Ridge, and Evergreen teams to arrive quickly to immediately begin the mitigation and restoration process. We have the training, equipment, and experience to restore water damage, no matter how extensive the damage is. Here are some of the reasons Golden can experience flooding:

The city is surrounded by hilly and mountainous terrain. The natural slopes and elevation changes can cause water to flow rapidly downhill during heavy rain events, potentially overwhelming drainage systems and causing localized flooding in certain areas.

Golden is situated near the confluence of Clear Creek and the South Platte River. During periods of heavy rain or rapid snowmelt, these water bodies can swell and overflow their banks, leading to flooding in low-lying areas, including nearby homes.

Flash floods can occur suddenly and without warning. Intense rainfall in nearby areas or upstream can lead to rapid runoff, resulting in flash floods that can affect homes located in flood-prone areas or downstream.
