Weak upper ridging was to the west of the region. Decent moisture and lift were across the area allowing for light showers across southeast New Mexico and along and west of the Upper Trans Pecos in West Texas. The soils remained saturated and rivers were high so flooding continued for portions of southeast New Mexico and West Texas.
