| Episode Narrative |
Deep moisture combined with an upper level wave sliding north across western New Mexico produced more torrential rainfall and repeat flooding for areas around Gallup and the Jemez Mountains. |
| Event Narrative |
After the Church Rock bridge at Telstar Road collapsed July 31st, a temporary bridge was put in place. Just 2 days later, another bout of flash flooding resulted in the temporary bridge being washed out. A female flood victim had to be rescued the high waters in Church Rock. She sustained only minor injuries. Other vehicles were flooded out in Church Rock as well. In addition, mud as deep as 5 feet plagued Challenger Road again. Superman Canyon Road, Old Church Rock Coal Road, and Becenti Trail were also washed out for the 2nd time in as many days. |
