Truth or Consequences, the town this property stands in, in 7 storm reports between 2000 and 2006: 3 flash flood, 3 hail, 1 heavy rain.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
Major street flooding was reported in Truth or Consequences, with the downtown area and points east hardest hit. Water entered businesses and the high school causing damage.
Hail accumulated to 4 inches on Interstate 25 south of Truth or Consequences, leading to multiple vehicle accidents. The largest hail reported by NMDOT was golf ball size.
A thunderstorm brought about 3 inches of rain, most of it falling within an hour, which resulted in major street flooding and some road wash outs. Highway 51 east of town had to be closed.
Two inches of rain fell within 70 minutes (one inch in 20 minutes) and caused street flooding throughout Truth or Consequences. Not far to the south, runoff from heavy rain led to a brief closure of NM 152 between Caballo and Hillsboro.
