        damage.
      In 1991... strong thunderstorms over east Metro Denver produced

        lines... trees... and fences at some locations in Aurora.
        Thunderstorm outflow winds gusted to 60 mph at Stapleton
        International Airport.

        The storms produced wind gusts averaging 65 mph and hail up
        to dime size. Wind gusts to 77 mph were recorded in
        Brighton. Numerous trees and power poles were downed by
        the winds. One power pole fell onto spectators at a High

        knocking out the windshields. Hail to 3/4 inch in diameter
        was reported in Littleton. A thunderstorm wind gust to 52

        of Denver International Airport or about 10 miles
        northwest of Bennett. No damage was reported.
      In 2007... lightning struck a 33-ft statue of jesus at mother
        cabrini shrine... in the foothills west of Golden. The blast
        broke off one of the statue's arms and a hand... and also
        damaged a foot. It cost an estimated $200000 to repair.
      In 2009... lightning struck the roof of a residence in Highlands
        Ranch. The home was not a total loss... but the fire caused
        extensive damage.
      In 2010... a thunderstorm produced hail up to 7/8 inch in
        diameter in Thornton.
19-20 in 1864... a devastating major flash flood occurred on the
        normally dry and Sandy Cherry Creek in Denver. The flood
        was caused by heavy thunderstorm rainfall and hail over the
        Palmer Ridge to the south of the city in both the Cherry
        Creek and Plum Creek basins. Nineteen deaths occurred along
        the South Platte river and Cherry Creek in Denver. The
        torrent swept cattle and sheep along with large trees and
        houses before it washing out several bridges... and moving
        large structures from their foundations. All city records
        were destroyed when city Hall washed away. The Rocky
        Mountain news building... built on stilts in the middle of the
        creek... was totally destroyed by the raging waters... which
        were as deep as 5 feet on the morning of the 20th. Once
        the flood waters receded... much sand and gravel was left
        behind. Property damage from the flood was estimated at
        nearly one million dollars. This was the first major
        flood of record in the city.
