Local 24-Hour Rainfall Totals.
Yesterday afternoon thunderstorms produced localized heavy rainfall. The heaviest rainfall fell just north of Red Bluff Reservoir on the New Mexico/Texas State Line southeast of Carlsbad. Estimates as high as 5" may have fallen.
Another pocket of heavy rainfall fell 20 miles east of Carlsbad just northwest of the WIPP Site. Both of these totals noted above may be a little high since radar indicated that the thunderstorms that produced this heavy rainfall also were producing hail. Hail tends to exaggerate the estimated rainfall totals in a storm.
