Episode Narrative A deep layer of moisture over northeast New Mexico helped to fuel thunderstorms with heavy rain over Union and Santa Fe counties. This resulted in the flooding of State Highway 370 from Clayton to Clayton Lake State Park, as well as caused the Santa Fe River to swell.
Event Narrative State Route 370 was impassable due to water covering much of the road between Clayton and Clayton Lake State Park, as several creeks overflowed their banks. Several motorists were stranded.
