Hail in Mora County, New Mexico

Very heavy rain and quarter sized hail falling at the time of report.

An upper-level low off the coast of California helped funnel in subtropical moisture into the state resulting in the development of widespread showers and storms across central and eastern New Mexico June 5th and 6th. Reports of severe weather and flash flooding stretched from the Rio Grande Valley across portions of eastern NM on June 5th. These reports ranged from a landspout tornado near the Petroglyph National Monument and Nara Visa, NM to flash flooding. Another round of severe weather began in the afternoon of June 6th producing more widespread reports over the same area of the state. Reports ranged from burn scar flash flooding within the Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon burn scar and Santa Rosa, to large hail over parts of San Miguel County.
