All areas of New Mexico will have a risk for flash flooding on Tuesday. The focus for the strongest and most persistent storms with heavy rainfall and flash flooding will be over northern and western NM.
The focus for storms with heavy rainfall and flash flooding will spread into even more of NM Wednesday and Thursday. Rainfall rates may exceed 2" per hour with the stronger storms. Normally dry creeks, streams, and arroyos may fill with fast-flowing water. Never cross a flooded roadway!
A very moist monsoon pattern has evolved over New Mexico and will persist through the mid- to late week period. In fact, moisture levels will be near record values for mid-September standards and will support the risk for heavy rainfall and flash flooding.
With the active weather pattern this week, be prepared to take action if a Flash Flood Warning is issued for your area! Have multiple ways to receive NWS messages.
