* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- 48-hour rainfall observations shows a wide swath of 0.75-1.50"
across the US-70 corridor over the Sacramento Mountains. High
soil moisture will allow runoff to occur quickly with any
additional rounds of rain. Additional scattered showers and
thunderstorms are expected to develop over portions of Otero
County this evening and overnight, leading to localized flash
flooding. Areas that have already received excessive rainfall and
flooding recently such as Whitetail, Apache Summit, and Tularosa
Creek will be at highest risk.
