  Southeastern Lincoln County in central New Mexico...

* Until 1000 PM MDT.

* At 749 PM MDT, Local officials reported thunderstorms producing 
  heavy rain over the Blue 2, South Fork and McBride Burn Scar. 
  Between 2 and 6 inches of rain have fallen. Flash flooding is

Excessive rainfall over the burn scar will impact the Rio Bonito, 
Eagle Creek, Cedar Creek and Rio Ruidoso drainages as well as 
downstream along the Rio Hondo. Impacts will include but are not 
limited to all nearby reservoirs, bridges, culverts and roadways 
associated with these drainages, especially at those points where 
streams merge.  Vulnerable properties in low lying areas are 
especially at risk. Impacts could extend at least to Picacho, New 
Mexico. The debris flow can consist of rock, mud, vegetation and 
other loose materials.

           producing flash flooding in and around the Blue 2,
           South Fork and McBride Burn Scar.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

This is a life threatening situation. Heavy rainfall will cause 
extensive and severe flash flooding of creeks, streams and ditches 
in the Blue 2, South Fork and McBride Burn Scar. Severe debris flows 
can also be anticipated across roads. Roads and driveways may be 
washed away in places. If you encounter flood waters, climb to

vulnerable drainages in and downstream of the South Fork and Salt 
fire burn area.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the 
dangers of flooding.
