Eastern NM under flood watch

A flood watch has been issued for much of eastern New Mexico through Sunday morning. Forecasters are also warning thunderstorms on Saturday and Sunday nights could be severe.

The chance of precipitation is 70% in the Clovis area, according to the National Weather Service.

NWS reports most rainfall totals will be less than a quarter of an inch but thunderstorms could produce 2 to 6 inches of rain in parts of Curry, De Baca, Quay and Roosevelt counties, which could result in flash flooding.

Severe thunderstorms are most likely to occur after midnight Saturday or late Sunday night, according to NWS.
