...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON...
* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.
* WHERE...Portions of central, east central, north central,
northeast, southeast, and west central New Mexico, including the
following areas, in central New Mexico, Central Highlands, Eastern
Lincoln County, Estancia Valley, Lower Rio Grande Valley, Middle
Rio Grande Valley including the Albuquerque Metro Area, San Agustin
Plains and Adjacent Lowlands, Sandia and Manzano Mountains
including Edgewood, South Central Highlands, South Central
Mountains and Upper Tularosa Valley. In east central New Mexico, De
Baca County and Guadalupe County. In north central New Mexico, East
Slopes Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Espanola Valley, Glorieta Mesa
Including Glorieta Pass, Jemez Mountains, Northwest Highlands,
Santa Fe Metro Area and Southern Sangre de Cristo Mountains. In
northeast New Mexico, Eastern San Miguel County, Far Northeast
Highlands, Harding County and Northeast Highlands. In southeast New
Mexico, Chaves County Plains and Southwest Chaves County. In west
central New Mexico, Southwest Mountains, West Central Highlands and
West Central Mountains.
* WHEN...From Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon.
* 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. Storm drains and ditches may become clogged with debris.
Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are
possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A dangerous surge of monsoon moisture will arrive Tuesday and
Wednesday with widespread heavy rain. Scattered occurrences of
flash flooding are likely, and there will probably be some main
stem river and tributary flooding, as the most likely rain amount
by Wednesday afternoon exceeds 2 inches in many locations along
and east of the central mountain chain, and 1 inch in many
locations westward to the continental divide. Stronger storms
will produce torrential rainfall at rates over 2 inches per hour,
and storms will train repeatedly in succession over some
locations, with locally heavier rain amounts reaching 4 to 6
inches over portions of central and eastern New Mexico. Heavy
rain will likely continue Wednesday night over eastern areas,
then showers and storms with locally heavy rainfall are forecast
to return along and east of the continental divide again on
Thursday.
- Rapid runoff and flash flooding will be most likely in complex
terrain, below recent burn scars, low-lying areas, urban areas,
normally dry arroyos, and near rivers and streams. As the event
unfolds, locations with saturated ground will also become prone
to rapid runoff and flash flooding from additional rounds of
storms.

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.

northeast, northwest, southeast, and west central New Mexico,
including the following areas, in central New Mexico, Central
Highlands, Eastern Lincoln County, Estancia Valley, Lower Rio
Grande Valley, Middle Rio Grande Valley including the Albuquerque
Metro Area, San Agustin Plains and Adjacent Lowlands, Sandia and
Manzano Mountains including Edgewood, South Central Highlands,
South Central Mountains and Upper Tularosa Valley. In east central
New Mexico, De Baca County, Guadalupe County and Quay County. In

* WHEN...Through late tonight.
* 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. Storm drains and ditches may become clogged with debris.
Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are
possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A dangerous surge of monsoon moisture will continue to stream
across the forecast area Wednesday and Wednesday night, and
probably also Thursday and Thursday night east of the continental
divide. Scattered occurrences of Flash flooding will probably
occur again Wednesday and Wednesday night, and some main stem
river and tributary flooding will become increasingly likely.
Stronger storms will be capable of producing rain at rates around
1 to 2 inches per hour, with additional rain amounts in many
locations along and east of the continental divide reaching 1 to
3 inches, with locally higher amounts potentially over 4 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.

...FLOOD WATCH NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE THURSDAY NIGHT...
* 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, De Baca County. In southeast New Mexico, Chaves County
Plains and Southwest Chaves County.
* WHEN...Through late Thursday night.
* 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. Storm drains and ditches may become clogged with debris.
Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are
possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Rounds of showers and storms will continue through Thursday
night. While rainfall will generally be light to moderate, heavy
rainfall rates up to 2 inches per hour will have the potential to
produce rapid runoff. 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 4
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.

heaviest rainfall will focus over the northeast plains where
rainfall rates up to 1 inch per hour may occur. Rain will
generally be lighter further west, but briefly heavy rates cannot
be ruled out as far west as the Santa Fe Metro area and the
Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Additional rainfall amounts tonight
will range from 0.5 to 1.5 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.
