Remnants of Hurricane Polo bring flooding to U.S. Southwest
The remnants of Hurricane Polo, which weakened over northwestern Mexico, are causing widespread flooding across the U.S. Southwest. Heavy rains have saturated the region, leading to road closures, water rescues, and evacuations in New Mexico due to concerns over dam failure. Arizona has reported significant flooding, with desert rivers surging and dry arroyos raging with floodwaters. The National Weather Service has issued flood watches for parts of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa, with flooding expected through Thursday. Tropical moisture from Polo continues to spread northeast, intensifying rainfall in affected areas.
