Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Low-water crossings
may be flooded. Flood structures, like levees and dams, may be
tested.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A late season plume of deep tropical moisture is transported
northward ahead of an upper-level disturbance, bringing several
rounds of thunderstorms with high rainfall rates to the region
through Wednesday evening. Repeated thunderstorms will result in
scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding with some
considerable cases. Wednesday morning is the most likely time to
see excessive rainfall. Rainfall amounts around 2 inches are
likely with isolated amounts of 4 inches or more.
- Central Dona Ana County through southeastern Sierra County are
most likely to see the heaviest rainfall through Wednesday

...FLOOD WATCH NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...

possible.
* WHERE...All of Dona Ana and Otero Counties in south-central New
Mexico, as well as the far northern Tularosa Basin in far eastern
Sierra County, New Mexico.
* WHEN...Through 6 AM Friday.
* 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. Low-water crossings

low. But given the saturated conditions in the area, even brief
storms could lead to localized flooding.
