Heavy Rains Hit American Southwest And Mid-Atlantic

Description

Southwest and mid-Atlantic early on Tuesday, swelling floods that have forced evacuations, disrupted air travel and cut power. Downpours were expected to continue for several more days in southeastern Colorado and northern New Mexico along with the region from southern New York to northern South Carolina, the National Weather Service said. Flood waters rushed through the streets in Santa Fe, New Mexico late on Monday, destroying homes and businesses and trapping motorists in vehicles as more than 3 inches (8 cm) of rain fell, the Albuquerque Journal newspaper reported. “We’re seeing flash floods all over town!”
