Description

What

Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible.

Where

A portion of east central New Mexico, including the following counties, Curry County, Quay County and Roosevelt County.

When

Through late tonight.

Impacts

Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.

Additional details

- Rounds of showers and storms will continue through Thursday night. Rainfall rates up to 2 inches per hour will have the potential to produce rapid runoff, especially during the afternoon and evening hours Thursday. Soils are becoming increasingly saturated from persistent rainfall over the past couple of days, further elevating the risk of flash flooding. Rainfall amounts will generally range from 1 to 2 inches, with isolated totals up to 3 inches. - Rapid runoff and flash flooding will be most likely in complex terrain, below recent burn scars, low-lying areas, urban areas, normally dry arroyos, near rivers and streams, and in locations where the ground is already saturated from recent heavy rainfall. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

Instructions

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should Flash Flood Warnings be issued. Never drive through flood waters. Most flash flood deaths occur in automobiles.
