Over 8,000 people within walking distance of South Boulder Rec Center. The most underinvested rec center in Boulder. April 9, time to fix that. 🗺️ #Boulder #SBRC #SouthBoulder

Small fire on the Mesa between NOAA (boulder) and Chautauqua. Thankfully no wind and @boulder_fire are on top of it. Rain later this week can’t come fast enough. #boulder

Make sure to take these warning seriously. Charge your phone, gear and cars ahead of these shutdowns. Try to stay off the roads as many accidents occurs because people forget how to 4-way stop at traffic lights that are out. Be safe! #boulder

The surprise snow fall made for a wonderful hike this morning. Took a nice loop with my buddy Jonathan from Shannahan ridge through the southside of #NCAR. #boulder

Winter finally showed up in the mountains. Today was a glorious day. Lots of sun and over a foot of powder. Our mountains need a lot more of these storms to bite into our historically bad snowpack. @WinterPark

Surreal to watch a Firehawk attacking a fire from my house in #Boulder. Very grateful for everyone who voted for the two bills we ran a few years ago to buy these for the state to have better rapid response before fires grow out of control. #bluebellfire #copolitics #coleg

A little video I recorded for other platforms about the imminent CME arrival and solar/geomagnetic storm – which I thought might be useful here too!

WAIT FOR IT! A time lapse from last nights Aurora. It’s about an hour compressed into 12 seconds. You really get a feel for how dynamic the northern lights are when seen in a time lapse. #boulder #aurora

Aurora over #Boulder tonight. A spectacular geomagnetic storm. The greens and pinks were easily visible to the naked eye. It’s still going on and will likely through the night. These will pulse in intensity, so just go out and soak it in.

So great to be at Half Fast Subs reopening with my council colleague Lauren Folkerts, after a fire destroyed their building about 9 months ago. Just in time for a new generation of students to enjoy the same great feel and sandwiches as we all remember. #boulder

Who else had the same thought following weeks of living in a blast furnace? #boulder

Last nights downpour was eagerly welcomed as the hot, dry days of summer wane on. Boulder is currently under Stage 1 Fire Restrictions and our wildfire resiliency takes planning, policy, and community action to build a safer, stronger Boulder. More at: mattbenjaminforcouncil.com/wildfire-prote….

Had a fun evening for National Night Out. Visited many block parties with our first responders. I must say the water ballon toss in North Boulder got very competitive. #boulder @boulder_fire @boulderpolice
