Late monsoons, record El Nino...

54 , 89% humidity. Off and on downpours all night. Drizzle in between.
Typhoon made landfall and crossing Sea of Cortez,heading inland towards NM. Fun bonus on monsoons.
Oh yeah, another heading up the coast now...6th ? 7th?

Locally, Hwy 36 closed due to hazmat crash just north of Quemado. The 2 alternate routes are state hwys, but dirt, so no go.

Storm moving fast and the outer bands have moved quick. Hope it doesn't stall.

Safe & dry in Pie Town.

Unfortunately the chile crop this year is lowest in many years.
Lack of water and a beet leaf blight. Wilts chile crowns.
I'd call and order now, they might be gone. Several places roasting in Alb. with Hatch chiles. Or were last week.

Heavy rains today and yesterday from the River east.
Got mud free work done today here. Coming in now and tomorrow here.

Beet Curly Top Virus, we had it bad in Western Colorado

Main body heading for El Paso it looks.
Getting wind and rain from east now, Steady. Soaking and at limit I think. Looks like water in the bottoms here.

Pecos, Datil report flooding. Socorro.
South Gila and Aldo getting hammered.
Southern CO in it.
Az has tornado watches up Tuscon south. Same for east NM.

Dotti is snoozing.

I’m in South Fork, Colorado right now. The Rio Grande and South Fork of the Rio Grande are just about at bank full. Lots of water moving south.
