In September 2013, historic flooding along Colorado’s Front Range, Boulder and Weld Counties took lives and caused serious damage to property, resulting in road closures, forced evacuations and more. Floods ravaging the state affected thousands of residents. The dramatic video footage will be reprised this week and next by local TV stations, with fresh reporting on rescue and recovery efforts. The Denver TV stations’ plans:
Channel 4 will rely on its weather staff. On Friday at 6:30 p.m., CBS4 will “look back at how this storm set up, some of the records it broke, and talk about the lessons we’ve learned,” according to News Director Tim Wieland.
“Lessons From The Flood,” a documentary, will feature the CBS4 weather team of anchor Ed Greene, meteorologist Dave Aguilera, meteorologist Justin McHeffey, morning weather forecaster Lauren Whitney and meteorologist/weather producer Chris Spears.
Channel 7 will break into prime-time for a half-hour special. 7News will broadcast “Colorado Recovers: One Year Later,” telling stories of “survival, resilience and rebuilding.” The half-hour anchored by Anne Trujillo, Eric Kahnert and Mike Nelson will air on Sept. 10 at 7 p.m.
Channel 9 and Channel 20 offer a half-hour Saturday. 9News will broadcast a special report Saturday at 6:30 p.m. on KTVD Channel 20 and at 9:30 p.m. on KUSA Channel 9. “Colorado’s Floods: One Year Later,” hosted by Kyle Clark, will recall the floods and examine the recovery since. “We’re focusing on showing what’s changed over the last year and what stubborn issues remain,” Clark said.
And Channel 31 will stretch coverage through the week. Fox31 plans reports beginning Sunday in the 9 p.m. newscast, running through the week, by anchors Jeremy Hubbard, Deborah Takahara, Kirk Yuhnke and Brooke Wagner, and investigative reporter Chris Halsne. The stories will repeat on “Good Day Colorado.”
Additionally Hubbard will host a half-hour prime-time special on Sunday Sept. 14 at 9:30 p.m. on Fox31, “Restore, Renew, Recover: Colorado Floods One Year Later.”
