After a day of severe thunderstorms that brought heavy rainfall to parts of New Mexico, the Ruidoso area faces the possibility of more rainfall on Thursday, as forecasted by the National Weather Service.
The region is currently grappling with a challenging situation as wildfires and floods pose a double threat to communities around Ruidoso. Evacuations have been necessary as two wildfires have converged on the area. While rain can aid firefighters in their efforts, it also raises concerns about flash flooding and debris flows, particularly in areas affected by recent fires.
