Be sure to explore downtown Brush to kick off the holidays!
We were obviously pummeled by the storm last night; especially the west side of town. Here is the radar from 6pm-8pm yesterday. You can see how it simply stayed right on top of us.
Thanks to all the response crews who were out throughout last night and this morning to keep things managed and safe for the community. Cleanup work will be ongoing over the next couple of days. Let us continue to look out for the well-being of one another.
We've heard various numbers of individual's rain gauges around town collecting 2.5 inches to 5+ inches over the course of approximately an hour and half. If those numbers are accurate, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Point Precipitation Frequency (PF) Estimates chart, those higher precipitation numbers would place the storm as a 500 year or 1,000 year storm event!
We do have additional rain forecasted for today...
Thanks to the Brush Rodeo for another great July 2-4 event! The Rodeo Board works throughout the year planning the event for the community; and there are plenty of local organizations supporting the work such as the Brush Area Chamber of Commerce who coordinates the great July 4th parade, and the Brush Volunteer Fire Department who takes care of the firework show we love so much! There are plenty of other individuals, businesses and organizations who help make it all happen too, so thank you everyone!
Here was the Christmas Tree lighting this past Friday night. Thanks to all those who participated and endured the frigid winds! Thanks to the Brush Area Chamber of Commerce for coordinating everything! Enjoy the Christmas month everyone!
