Upper level high pressure centered over southeastern New Mexico and the Permian Basin allowed for the first widespread surge of monsoon moisture to shift north into central and western New Mexico. Slow-moving thunderstorms developed over the central mountain chain and drifted eastward onto nearby highlands and plains. Several storms across the state produced torrential rainfall with rates over two inches per hour. Heavy rainfall around Las Vegas resulted in flash flooding along Gallinas Creek. Low water crossings and intersections became impassable across parts of Las Vegas. Several observers along the east slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains reported over two inches of rainfall.

Torrential rainfall near Mariano Lake produced flash flooding on reservation routes 49 and 11. A deluge of rainfall on a ranch near Clines Corners produced 1.5 inches in just 35 minutes. A strong thunderstorm with frequent lightning strikes moved across the Albuquerque metro and destroyed a large tree outside a home in Four Hills.

This second round of very heavy rainfall on top of saturated soils resulted in serious flooding within Roosevelt County. Vehicles were stranded on U.S. Highway 70 and state police reported a lake covering miles of the highway. State road 267 was also washed out.

Environment Canada conducted a survey of the long-tracked tornado, which began and mostly occurred in Ontario before crossing into Minnesota, and rated the damage on their end as EF-2, and as EF-1 on the short distance in Minnesota before it dissipated. Satellite imagery is available to show the clear path of the tornado. The total path length was about 8.5 miles, only 0.9 miles of which occurred in Minnesota.
On July 24th, the Bay County Sheriff's office reported a drowning due to rip currents behind Coral Reef Condominiums on Thomas Drive.  Single red flags were flying at the time of the incident and a high rip current risk statement had been issued for the day.
