...Moderate to Heavy Rainfalls Expected Across Portions of Southern
New Mexico and West Texas Late This Afternoon and Tonight...
Numerous rain showers with isolated thunderstorms will occur
across southern New Mexico and far west Texas late this afternoon
and tonight. Heavy rains will fall across a few areas with
rainfall amounts exceeding an inch over several locations.
Isolated areas may experience some flooding especially around low
water crossings and poor drainage areas. Thus a few road closures
may be required. This includes a few locations over or around the
vicinity of Las Cruces...El Paso...Deming...Silver
City...Alamogordo and Truth or Consequences.
Elsewhere there will be more widespread water
ponding or minor street flooding making driving difficult.
Remember never to drive or walk across water covered roads but
instead seek alternate routes of travel.
