7/11/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M As I look at Rio Arriba county in New Mexico, I'm amazed that there are no large amounts of water shown in the center of the county. I sat and watched heavy rain and pea sized hail for four hours on Sunday the 6th and a flood of water in four hours on the 8th. I measured water on the 7th and figured it to be about 0.6" in our measurement and we were too busy sand bagging field ponds to measure on the 8th! I will send a measuring monitor to that ranch. They just got a tower because of the high amount of fires in the area requiring communication! Monsoons are common in the area, usually around this valley from July 2nd to the 14th according to one resident who has been there for years. This is N 36, 18.431 and W106.54.284. And there is no water underground for wells!
