The car showed it was temporarily closed but we stopped by based on the posts above. We only hit 147 kW at about 40% SoC
I stopped by yesterday. It showed that it was an active station in my car's navigation system and was able to precondition the battery before charging there. I arrived at about 25% SoC and briefly hit 188 kW.
This Supercharger was most likely damaged or destroyed by the wildfires that burned hundreds of structures in Superior and Louisville today. 
video from Fox31 news of Tesla Superior service center.
Hopefully the damage to the service center and Supercharger isn't that severe. It looks like most of the exterior of the building and Supercharger are ok! For those who don't know, the exterior was covered with repurposed beetle-kill wood. Some of it burned but most of the metal building looks fine. Of course the sprinklers might've caused some water damage.
Here's more detailed pics of the Superior Service Center after the Marshall fire. This is the west and south wall. Much of the wall covering has been burned, the steel structure remains.
The exit door seems undamaged. That's tough glass.
Some (but not all) windows broken.
A line of to-be-delivered/loaner/waiting-for-repair Teslas on the north end of the SC, undamaged as far as I can tell. It's puzzling that the hotel a block east was completely leveled except (by design) the emergency stairwells and elevator core. 100 mile winds were blowing embers everywhere - one of them found a combustible part of the hotel to land one, I assume. The SuperCharger seemed completely unharmed, and there was a car attached to one of the stations. National Guard was not letting anyone drive in, and the guardsman said the fire on the other side was a battery fire. I think that's not credible; most of the damage was higher up on the structure, cars on the inside appear undamaged, and I don't think Tesla keeps spare battery packs around, they must be special-ordered.
A view inside from the north looking south.Everything looks normal, except for too much light coming through the back wall. I expect that the tools and supplies are largely intact, that some temporary coverings could make the structure secure while they're ordering construction materials to fix the relatively small parts of wall that were damaged. There might be heat damage on cars/tools in the south 30 or 40 feet of the building though.

Oh ya completely a bug, you have to zoom WAY in to click on the Loveland Service Center and get their hours and phone number. But its there too.
It was probably all water damaged since the sprinkler system was activated.
Yup, it's stripped down to the steel girders. A couple of the SuperCharger pylons had some superficial damage, but most are intact. The power cabinets and transformers seem OK.

Haven’t you heard about the new open floor plan that is all the rage in Corporate America right now?
