On This Day in Wx History
1976 – A stationary thunderstorm produced more than ten inches of rain which funneled into the narrow Thompson River Canyon of northeastern Colorado. A wall of water six to eight feet high wreaked a twenty-five mile path of destruction from Estes Park to Loveland killing 156 persons. The flash flood caught campers, and caused extensive structural and highway damage. Ten miles of U.S. Highway 34 were totally destroyed as the river was twenty feet higher than normal at times.

NASA Nerdology
During this week in 2008, NASA confirmed that at least one of the lakes on Saturn’s moon Titan contained liquid hydrocarbons. This discovery made Titan the only other celestial body in our solar system to contain liquid on its surface at the time. Below is an artist’s rendering of that lake.
