YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDays after the Texas flooding tragedy, Ruidoso, New Mexico was hit by devastating flash floods moved over areas still reeling from burn scars left by wildfires last year.
The Rio Ruidoso at the Hollywood gage — found along the Ruidoso and Ruidoso Downs Racetrack border —recorded a historic crest of 20.24, according to the National Weather Service.
The flooding left people trapped in homes and prompted multiple water rescues in small mountain town about 180 miles southeast of Albuquerque, in the Sierra Blanca mountain range. The town is susceptible to mudslides and increased runoff following two large fires that scorched swathes of land, known as "burn scars," a year earlier.
