Looks like a good rain in NM

Looks like parts NM has been getting some good moisture all week, any of you guys that live there had any significant rainfall?

Silver City received a good shower on Sunday, easily our biggest precip event of the year. I heard mention of 0.6" recorded. More fell last night. It's a good start, still a long way from what is needed.

High was 73 yesterday. Damn near had to dig out a jacket....

We've had 3 1/4" inches since Sunday morning

My classmates in Alamogordo, Clovis and Las Cruces have all said rain since Sunday afternoon. Thank goodness

Not quite NM but here in El Paso we are on day 2 of steady rain. I've been trying to remember the last time we had a good stretch like this. I think it's been at least 3 years.

@hank4elk , what about you?

Probably received another 1/2" since noon today. It has been hitting portions of Unit 16 B, not sure how much 16 A or D are getting. I'll head up there this weekend to look.

SE NM has been the big winner so far, let's hope this gets more widespread and kicks off a good monsoon. At my house in ABQ I've only got about 0.2", sure looks like it should have been more with the cool and damp weather. High yesterday was in the 60's, it was 115 in Portland OR, poor suckers.

Nice rain near Quemado yesterday afternoon but nothing at our place west of there.

Off and on rain for five days now, from drizzly light stuff to good hard rain. Kinda like Oregon and NM weathermen got things backwards. Hoping for a good monsoon - the storms mess up some of my outside and in the mountain time, but it's worth it to have the moisture. Calling for more days of rain from this setup.

Looks like Magdalena area might be getting a decent rain today on the radar

Finally, I haven't seen rain like this for awhile. We got an inch and a half down here in El Paso. Elephant butte could use a few inches, that's for sure. I hope this monsoon season stays strong.

I don't live out there but a good friend of mine does and he has been sending me regular reports about how good the rain is right now. My wife has a elk tag and I have a deer tag and he said the way it looks right now its going to be a great year to have a tag.

Now it just needs to soak in.

Wished we could send some of this East Texas rain out that way… we’ve had more than our share of rain this a year.

@hank4elk , what about you?

We went from winter to summer. June is a hot dry month, usually.Very hot.
Got 1st measurable rain in 12 yrs in late June. Even a downpour the last week.
Rain every evening so far in July.Light rains. Cooler days & nights.
Just hoping the monsoons stick around & add some inches to the total this year.
Still bone dry in most of the SW.

We got another half inch last night. And possibly more today
