Where the report was made, with tornadoes recorded within 15 miles over the years.

What the National Weather Service wrote

Pictures on Social Media showed that the road from Polacca to Low Mountain was washed out and impassable. The wash likely flooded to Tolani Lake.

The wider storm

A decaying MCV remains over the eastern Mogollon Rim in the morning brought an area of showers and a few embedded thunderstorms remain. Otherwise, clearing skies allowed for increasing instability through the afternoon. This allowed strong thunderstorms to form that produced heavy rain and flash flooding.

Began near Pinon (36.0154, -110.1918).
