...HEAVY RAINFALL LIKELY OVER PORTIONS OF EASTERN NEW MEXICO 
MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...

A long duration heavy rain event is becoming likely over a large
swath of eastern New Mexico beginning Monday lasting through
Tuesday. Confidence is growing that this area will stretch from
the Sacramento Mountains northeastward through east-central New
Mexico. Fast moving storms producing heavy rainfall passing over 
the same locations repeatedly, as well as storms becoming 
anchored over the same area of the Sacramento Mountains will raise
the threat of flash flooding. Rainfall amounts will vary greatly,
but could be upwards of two to four inches over a 24 to 48 hour 
timeframe. 

Stay up to date with the latest forecast as it becomes more 
fine-tuned with timing and location.
