Why Are My Weather Posts Missing From Facebook.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that my Facebook page was shut down without any warning by Facebook this past Saturday, June 8th. All I was told was that I had violated their community standards. I don't know what triggered that; they didn't tell me. I was told this may be permanent or for six months.
My guess is that it may be because I posted several comments and articles from my Substack page about the riots in LA, and that must have triggered/angered someone, and they complained, thus Facebook shut me down. I don't know this as fact, though. I have appealed this decision, and I'm still waiting for their reply. I have read on X that this has happened to other Facebook users posting about the LA riots as well.
I always share my weather blog posts (that I post here) on my Facebook page and my X page. This included over twelve different New Mexico and West Texas Facebook Community sites. So there are thousands of you out there (based on my views and shares of those posts) who will no longer see those posts. My Facebook page may or may not be restored.
This is another good reason (as the National Weather Service often reminds us) to have multiple ways of receiving severe weather alerts when severe weather threatens your location. My weather web page is one of those ways, and I really appreciate all of you who have and still do use it. Thank you so much!!!
If my Facebook page is restored, I will continue to share my weather blog posts and some of the NWS Watches and Warnings...as I have been doing for years now.

Supercell T-Storm Produces Large Hail & Flash Flooding.

At noon mdt on Monday, October 2, 2023 a few thunderstorms started developing along the east face of the Guadalupe mountains just northeast of Queen, New Mexico in southwestern Eddy County. One of these quickly developed into a small but mean supercell thunderstorm.

I was out storm chasing at the time. Initially I was going to chase the storm to the northeast as it potentially moved along White Pine Rd. southwest of Lakewood. However the storm split and I chose the right cell which produced at least golf ball to tennis ball size hail, and flash flooding along St. Hwy 137 northwest of Carlsbad, New Mexico, and US Hwy 285 near Brantley Lake State park. 




Arroyo, bar ditch, and street flooding was reported in around Carlsbad. The Trucki bypass (St Hwy 524) was closed briefly due to flash flooding. Several other streets in Carlsbad were closed due to the flooding including the Dark Canyon crossing at Radio Blvd and Boyd Drive. 

Normally dry arroyo Dark Canyon flooded and a peak crest of 10.45' was measured at 9.15 PM MDT on Monday, October 2, 2023. Normally dry Rocky Arroyo also flooded and the USGS gauge at the bridge on US Hwy 285 recorded a peak water depth of a little over 7' at 3:30 PM MDT.
