Reminiscent Of The Floods Last September

The weather forecast for this week in the Southwest still looks intriguing. The low arriving today at the West Coast will become a cutoff low in the Southwest early in the week. By Friday, that will establish a proto-monsoonal circulation that will pump moisture into New Mexico and Colorado in a way reminiscent of last September's colossal flooding situation. The Texas Panhandle is particularly-dry right now, and may be particularly hard-hit. It's always from-pillar-to-post out there on the High Plains!
