Flash floods on the Western Slope, how Coloradans feel about the state, Denver’s bar closing time delay, delayed

Moisture is good for a drought, but some parts of Colorado are getting too much rain, far too fast, causing mudslides and flash floods. Then, new survey results give a window into how Coloradans feel about the state and nation’s big birthdays. Plus, Denver is moving to let bars and clubs stay open later, but a recent shooting has delayed those plans.
