South to southeast flow at the surface combined with weak southerly flow aloft ahead of a west coast trough brought plenty of moisture into the Borderland with slow storm motion. The heavy rain brought flash flooding to the recent Trout burn scar as well as along Highway 180 northwest of Deming. An isolated severe thunderstorm brought wind damage to the Truth or Consequences area.
