* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Tropical moisture from the remnants of Hurricane Polo will overspread the region, which will promote heavy rain across southeast New Mexico and far west Texas. Soils in these areas remain saturated following heavy rains from last week, which will further promote the risk for flash flooding. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
