Odile Poised to Bring Catastrophic Flooding to Southwest US
By Alex Sosnowski, Expert Senior Meteorologist
Tropical Rainstorm Odile will unload tremendous rainfall over a large part of the Southwest United States that will run off the mountains and into the desert valleys and plains through the end of the week.
While the rain will continue to ease the long-term drought in the region, too much rain will fall too quickly for the landscape to absorb.
AccuWeather.com Chief Operating Officer Evan Myers and Western Weather Expert Ken Clark discuss the heavy rainfall and flooding risk in detail below:
“There is the potential for devastating, catastrophic and historic flooding in this scenario,” Clark stated in an interview.
Heavy rainfall will hit southeastern Arizona and much of New Mexico, where a general 3 to 6 inches are forecast. However, local amounts of 10 inches or more are possible on the slopes of the mountains from southeast of Tucson, Arizona, to central New Mexico. Rainfall of 1 to 2 inches per hour can occur.
There is a significant risk to lives and property in the region.
“Not only will flash and urban flooding occur in this case, but there is the potential for major river flooding,” Clark said.
Since early Tuesday, nearly 2 inches of rain has fallen on Deming, New Mexico, with close to an inch at Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Near Stafford, Arizona, 2.6 inches of rain fell in six hours early Wednesday morning. The amount of rain and rainfall rates will continue to ramp up in parts of the Southwest through Thursday.
This is the type of threat that can cause water to sweep through normally dry stream beds, called arroyos, and into villages, towns and major cities rapidly. Major roads can be damaged and some bridges along secondary roads could be swept away. Mudslides and dust storms can block roads in a few locations.
“Travel on Interstate-10 between El Paso, Texas, and Phoenix will be dangerous,” Clark said.
A safer route from the Plains to California will be I-40, but delays and poor visibility are possible due to heavy rain.
The rain from Odile is coming just one week after moisture from Norbert drenched the region, creating major flooding.
