Flood Watch issued September 16 at 6:17AM MDT until September 17 at 6:00AM MDT by NWS El Paso Tx/Santa Teresa NM

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible. * WHERE...Much of southwest New Mexico, including the Dona Ana, Grant, Luna, Hidalgo, and Sierra Counties and the Sacramento Mountain in south-central New Mexico. * WHEN...Through 6 AM Thursday morning. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Low-water crossings may be flooded. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Increasing upper level moisture and a series of upper level disturbances will lead to rounds of thunderstorms capable of producing torrential downpours. Most of the Gila region has received 1 to 3 inches of rain in recent days, therefore any additional heavy rain could lead to flash flooding. Thunderstorms may be slow to initiate in the higher terrain this afternoon, but will become more numerous during the evening and late night hours. Another round or two of storms is expected for Wednesday, therefore the Flood Watch has been extended into early Thursday morning. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood…
