Flash Flood Watch Hits Western NM | Santa Fe News

Flash flood watch is in effect for western New Mexico as soaked ground braces for heavy storms—potentially dumping over a foot of rain in spots like Gallup, Grants, and Silver City, with dangerous flash flooding likely as rain lingers into the evening. With soil already saturated, even moderate rainfall can trigger rapid river rises and surprise washouts. While the monsoon shifts west over the weekend, hitting Farmington and staying active around Gallup and Silver City, Albuquerque and Santa Fe may see fewer storms. Stay alert, stay informed, and have a plan—this is no time to ignore the weather. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
