Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceEMERGENCY MANAGER
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeDaily thunderstorms increased across southern Lincoln County and northern Otero County during mid month which began a series of heavy runoff events into the rivers and creeks surrounding Ruidoso. No significant damage was reported. However, the events were rather unusual for southern Lincoln County and had emergency management officials on edge for possible heavy flooding. A storm over Ruidoso on the 13th caused the Rio Ruidoso to jump to near 4 feet water level. Flooding was limited to several road closures in low areas and an evacuation of a mobile home park where access was cut off for about 18 hours. Rains over the surrounding mountains increased the runoff into the Rio Bonito and Carrizo Creek and this eventual produced unusual high levels in both Bonito Lake and Mescalero Lake. Several periods of uncontrolled water releases occurred from both lakes as water levels remained near or a few inches above spillway level through about the 26th.
