Despite the high pressure centered more over western New Mexico, an abundant amount of moisture still resided within the atmosphere. This led to scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms across much of the central and western New Mexico, some of which produced very heavy rainfall. Flash flooding and even a report of large hail was reported across portions of central New Mexico.

Any potential injuries to the motorcyclist are unknown. Timing of this event is a rough estimate given radar. Damages are estimated.
Despite the upper-level high pressure system building over the Four Corners, a backdoor cold front moved southward through eastern and central New Mexico on August 8, 2022. This influx of moisture helped to support a robust round of thunderstorms throughout the afternoon and evening hours. A magnet for heavy thunderstorms, the Calf Canyon burn scar was impacted again with significant flash flooding and debris flow reported in the Rociada, Holman, and Chacon areas.

Mid level tropical moisture from Hurricane Frank which was situated off the Baja coast spread northward into southern and central California on August 1.  This moisture interacted with a very warm and unstable airmass which was present over the region at the time.  Showers and thunderstorms broke out during the afternoon and brought moderate to locally heavy rainfall to the mountains and deserts of eastern Kern County as well as to the Sierra Nevada.  The heavier thunderstorms prompted the issuance of two Flash Flood Warnings, two Flood Advisories and three Significant Weather Advisories.  There were reports of nuisance street flooding as a result of the heavy rainfall.

An ice jam formed on the Tanana River downstream of Manley Hot Springs and caused significant flooding along the Tanana River upstream of the ice jam for approximately 15 miles. Although the temperatures preceding the ice jam were normal to below normal, the Nenana Ice Classic personnel measured an ice thickness of 30���, 73% of average, on April 8th at the Tanana River at Nenana. This site is 53 miles southeast of Manley Hot Springs, but it is a reasonable indicator of basin-wide conditions. The Natural Resources Conservation Services snow water equivalent (SWE) data reported many stations with a three record snowpack in the upper Tanana River basin with an estimated basin-wide SWE more than 200% of normal. It is likely that the robust snowpack contributed to the flooding due to the large surge of water moving downriver past Manley Hot Springs.

Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

Water levels rose to bankfull in Manley Hot Springs the evening of May 6th and by the morning of May 7th major flooding was observed in the community. NWS staff on a Civil Air Patrol reconnaissance flight observed a large ice jam on the Tanana River 12 miles downriver which dammed the river and backed up water into the community. The river crested around 9 am May 8th with a preliminary estimated stage of 19.50 feet, which is 6.0 feet above flood stage. This was the highest water level observed at Manley Hot Springs since the record flood of 1956 (the 1956 flood is estimated approximately 2.5 feet higher). The ice jam held for 36 hrs, releasing on the morning of May 8th and water levels began to recede through the day. Standing water remained in low lying areas of the community through the following week. Impacts to the community included many homes and structures either flooded or surrounded by water, many roads inundated with some parts of town appearing cut off and only accessible by boat, Only 6 of freeboard under the Manley Hot Springs Slough bridge, approximately 500 feet of the Elliot Highway approaching town was inundated with several feet of water, power was shut down in the community as a precaution due to the lines being buried, cellular, phone, and internet networks are down. In addition significant areas of fuel sheen on the water surface due to overturned heating fuel tanks and other sources.

An ice jam formed at Sand Island, adjacent to McGrath, at 5pm on May 10th . Before the ice jam, waterleaves were near bankfull, and the ice jam caused the river to rise 4.5 feet in 6 hours ��� from 19.2��� at 5 PMto 23.7��� and 11PM. The ice jam held for 26 hours, releasing at 6pm on 5/11, with the water dropping rapidly. The flooding caused damage to Chinana Avenue, the main road in town as well as the road to the dump. The flood damaged the sewage lagoon and the dump. Water entered basements and crawlspaces of around 15 homes.
An upper level ridge centered over the mid and lower Mississippi Valley on June 17th and 18th resulted in abnormally hot temperatures across much of the Four State Region, with afternoon temperatures climbing into the upper 90s to near 100 degrees each day. Wet grounds from widespread rains back on the 10th-11th over Southeast Oklahoma, Southwest Arkansas, and much of North Louisiana also did not allow for much mixing of dewpoints, with oppressively hot conditions observed as heat indices ranged from 105-109 degrees each day.

Red Flag Warning conditions were met for T/RH at STNA2/Stoney RAWS 2pm to 8pm 6/30. Winds did not hit technical criteria at this site, but winds across the zone for higher elevation sites were gusting in the 30 to 50 mph range nearly continuously for much of 6/30 afternoon and overnight.
(Example: Kilae Creek N18KX, elevation 1877 ft).  Fire behavior was notably active on GOES/POES imagery during the afternoon and evening of 6/30 across both 163/153 zones.
Extremely dry fuel conditions prompted issuance despite explict Red Flag Warning
conditions not expected to be met.  Strong southeasterlies with upper 70s temps had a significant impact to larger fires, with notably active fire activity and a very large, dense smoke plumes visible on POES/GOES imagery PM 6/30 over both 153/163 zones.
PANI- Aniak/PALG- Kalskag also ended up impacted by extremely dense smoke spreading NW off of the Lime Complex fires, with both sites falling to 1/4SM or less from around 8pm 6/30 to 2am 7/1.  Dense Smoke Advisories were issued for zones 152- Lower Kuskokwim Valley/155- Kuskokwim Delta in accordance with the low visibility smoke observed by both AWOS/ASOS and obvious support from webcams
Notes from an IMET (on 7/2) for overall Hot, Dry, Windy conditions/fire reactions and 153/163 Red Flag Warnings: The first day we had the Red Flags out, the fires really responded and we definitely verified them from a fire perspective...If I were to redo yesterday, I probably would've kept the Red Flag for 163 but not 153 (the western fires did not see much activity. With the historically dry fuels we were worried about the winds even though we knew it wouldn't hit the Temp or RH criteria). But, hindsight is 20/20 and they appreciated the advance notice of this event, because as a whole the fires grew a lot. The Ops chief did mention seeing Red Flag level activity on the eastern fires yesterday though, so the 163 red flag warning certainly verified.
Scattered high-based thunderstorms tracked across northern and western portions of South Central Nebraska on this Monday afternoon and evening, prompting a few reports of marginally-severe wind gusts. This included 62 MPH measured by a mesonet station six miles south-southeast of Overton, and 59 MPH measured by the Ord Airport ASOS. Activity diminished by mid-evening with the gradual loss of daytime heating.
This event unfolded in a classic hot, deeply-mixed environment, and mainly affected areas west of a line from Greeley-Alma. Deep layer shear was on the weak side, around 25-30 knots, with mixed-layer CAPE values peaking between 500-1000 J/kg. Given the deep mixing in place, healthy DCAPE values of 1000-1500 J/kg developed, allowing for the potential for intense wind gusts with stronger storms.
