ADDITIONAL DETAILS
- Another round of widespread rainfall is expected today into Monday with rainfall amounts generally between 1 and 2 inches near and west of the Continental Divide, except near 3 inches in favored upslope regions of the Tusas Mountains near Chama. This rainfall will occur over very saturated soils which will increase runoff. These are also areas that are still recovering from the last flood event. River rises are likely and some rivers may flood. If river flooding materializes, it will likely continue into Monday evening.
