Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. * 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. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood…
