Description
What
Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible.
Where
Portions of central, east central, and southeast New Mexico, including the following areas, in central New Mexico, Eastern Lincoln County and South Central Mountains. In east central New Mexico, Curry County and Roosevelt County. In southeast New Mexico, Chaves County Plains and Southwest Chaves County.
When
Through this evening.
Impacts
Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Low-water crossings may be flooded.
Additional details
- A swath of heavy rain over the past 24 hours from near Ruidoso through Roswell up to Clovis of 2 to 6 inches of rain will allow any new storm passing over this area to threaten flash flooding through today and this evening. - 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
