A community in southeastern New Mexico is reeling from severe flooding following historic rainfall over the weekend. The flooding in Roswell has resulted in at least two fatalities and left hundreds stranded on rooftops.
Waterlogged vehicles remain submerged on city streets, with some smashed against bridge supports and trees after being swept away by the floodwaters. This unusual scene is unfamiliar for Roswell, a community known more for its dry climate than heavy rainfall.
