Hydrologic Outlook
National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
239 PM MDT Thu Oct 29 2026

...LOW CHANCE FOR RIVER FLOODING LATE SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY
ACROSS NORTHWEST NEW MEXICO...

* IMPACTS...River, creek, washes and arroyos may reach out of
  banks. Rock, mud and debris may flow into roadways and flash
  flooding can not be ruled out, especially in urban areas.

* CONFIDENCE...High confidence in widespread rainfall, with low
  confidence in river and flash flooding.

* WHAT...A strong Pacific storm system will interact with a
  atmospheric river streaming into the Desert Southwest and Four
  Corners region, producing widespread rain which will focus in
  the mountains.

* WHERE...Four Corners and surrounding region, including Aztec,
  Bloomfield, Farmington and Shiprock.

* WHEN...Sunday into Monday.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...River basins are already saturated from
  last week`s rainfall and flooding, making additional runoff more
  efficient and can more easily cause flooding problems. The
  greatest precipitation amounts are forecast in the San Juan
  Mountains of Colorado, which will create high flows in the
  Animas and La Plata Rivers. These rivers feed the San Juan
  River, which saw record flooding last week.

Continue to monitor forecasts for the updates as this situation
unfolds.
