Six Inches Of Rain Falls In The Texico Area In Curry Co, NM.
(As Of 11:01 AM MDT This Morning).
A CoCoRaHS volunteer rainfall observer located 15.7 miles north of Texico, in Curry County, near the NM/TX state line, measured a 24-hour rainfall total of 6.05" as of 8 AM MDT this morning. Not far from this station (indicated on the map above by the blue 6.05" rainfall total) the Cannon AFB Dual Pol Radar estimated that a 24-hour total of 7.40" had fallen (indicated by the red dot). This total may be slightly high since it appears that the radar was over estimating rainfall totals in this area by 1.50" to 1.90".
