...FLOOD WATCH IS CANCELLED...



The Flood Watch is cancelled for a portion of south central New 

Mexico, including the following areas, East Central Tularosa 

Basin/Alamogordo, Northern Dona Ana County, Sierra County Lakes, 

Southeast Tularosa Basin, Southern Dona Ana County/Mesilla Valley 

and West Central Tularosa Basin/White Sands.



A lack of instability will limit the risk of flash flooding to the 

Sacramento Mountains, the Gila Region, and portions of Southwestern 

New Mexico later today into tonight. The risk of flash flooding is 

too low to warrant a Watch in South-Central New Mexico.
