Flash Flood in Mora County, New Mexico

The local emergency manager relayed reports of flash flooding over State Highway 434 at several locations between mile markers 7 and 10. There was also flooding reported over nearby county roads, including roads A034, A020, and B022 near Guadalupita and Coyote Creek State Park. No damage was reported.

A weak upper level disturbance passed over northern NM helping to invigorate another round of afternoon thunderstorms along and east of the central mountain chain of NM. This isolated to scattered activity covered an area stretching from the east slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains across much of eastern NM. Heavy rains over and near the Hermit's Peak/Calf Canyon burn scar caused flash flooding in the Coyote Creek State Park. Strong to severe storms also produced large hail ranging from Mora County to Roosevelt County.
