PUEBLO STORM AFTERMATH: It’s safe to say The Mesa in Pueblo County was hit pretty hard by last night’s storm. @pueblod70 had to move students from Vineland elementary and middle schools to remote learning due to flooding in the area. @KOAA pic.twitter.com/ibADXfKJgG

On the other side of the county, people in Beulah are under a Flash Flood Warning until 12:30 p.m. News5 is hearing reports of some homeowners unable to access their driveways in the rural area.
First Alert 5 Meteorologist Sam Schreier says the Pueblo region will get a break from the rains across the mid-afternoon, but should anticipate showers and storms to move back in later today and overnight.
There is also the potential for small hail, although severe weather is not expected.
