| August 2015 | Flash Flood | Aztec | $1,000,000 | The Blanco Arroyo overflowed its banks and, combined with heavy rain across the area, led to significant flash flooding. Firefighters rescued a few individuals from the roofs of their homes, otherwise no major injuries or fatalities were reported. Several homes were reportedly shifted off their foundation and a propane tank at one of those homes was swept away in the flood waters. Multiple classrooms were damaged at three area schools, causing all schools to be closed on the 27th and one school, Lydia Rippey Elementary, to be closed on the 28th. The Aztec Municipal Golf Course at Hidden Valley was closed until further notice due to damages incurred from the flooding. A large rock slide closed Navajo Road 36 at mile marker 28, with other smaller road closures reported around Aztec. Measured rainfall in the area ranges from an inch to a little over an inch and a half. |
| August 2015 | Thunderstorm Wind | Aztec | $150,000 | Damaging winds caused multiple trees to fall over, landing on houses and power lines. This caused power outages for portions of Aztec, Flora Vista, and Crouch Mesa. |
| May 2017 | Thunderstorm Wind | Aztec | $20,000 | Power poles blown over onto roadway in Aztec. Minor damage reported to several vehicles. |
| August 1997 | Flash Flood | Aztec | - | Three to 6 inches of mud and debris covered parts of Highway 550 in Aztec following heavy rain of 1 to 2 inches on the mesa above town near the airport. Several other city streets were temporarily closed by the runoff. |
