A sharp trough of low pressure from the west combined with remnant moisture from tropical storm Georgette produced heavy rain over much of New Mexico. Areas around Gladstone in Union County were the hardest hit. Three feet of water inundated one house and rapidly flowing water carried a car 1/4 mile away from the residence.
