A trough to the west, coupled with the effects of moist upslope flow, helped trigger scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms across far West Texas and Southeast New Mexico throughout the day on September 28th. While no severe weather was reported, ample moisture and terrain effects resulted in at least one instance of flash flooding in the Davis Mountains and one instance of flooding due to runoff near Carlsbad.
