Heavy Rainfall and Flooding Threats in New Mexico and Beyond - 09-23 to 09-25
Updated Wed Sep 23rd 2026, 4:10am PDT

Over the next couple of days, New Mexico and surrounding states are facing a significant threat of heavy rainfall and potential flooding. This is particularly concerning for areas with sensitive terrains, burn scars, and urban centers. In the East, the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys along with the Southeast are also expecting heavy rain and possible flooding through Wednesday. Drivers should remain cautious on the roads. Let's break it down for you by region.

New Mexico and Southern High Plains

Wednesday and Thursday will see I-25 and I-40 in New Mexico potentially impacted by heavy rainfall. Roads could become slippery and flash flooding is a concern, especially around Albuquerque, NM. Over in West Texas, drivers on US Route 70 and US Route 285 should be prepared for similar conditions. If you're traveling across the Four Corners region into Arizona or Colorado, expect possible delays on US Route 160 and US Route 550 with rain potentially causing hazardous conditions.

Mid-Atlantic, Southeast and Ohio/Tennessee Valley

Wednesday brings a strong chance of rain affecting commutes along I-81 and I-95 across the Mid-Atlantic, including cities like Richmond, VA and Washington, D.C. In the Southeast, especially in areas around Atlanta, GA, expect showers to slow down traffic on I-75 and I-85. Meanwhile, travelers in the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys, particularly near Cincinnati, OH and Nashville, TN, should anticipate delays on I-65 and I-71 due to persistent rain.

Central and Northern Plains

Colder temperatures will join the rain showers by Thursday across the central and northern Plains. Travelers on I-90 and I-94 should prepare for possible wet and chilly conditions, especially as you move through cities like Minneapolis, MN and Fargo, ND. The combination of rain and cooler weather might require a little extra time during your travels.

Stay tuned for updates and remember to travel safely!
