Summary

Record-breaking rain and flooding in early November 2026 hit Pagosa Springs, Colorado, and parts of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. In Pagosa Springs, the San Juan River and related flooding damaged roads, bridges, water and sewer lines, a geothermal line and the history museum, and about 10 to 15 homes were reported destroyed. Roughly 50 people and 100 animals were evacuated, and highways including Wolf Creek Pass and CO 151 remained closed or restricted. In Arizona, the Salt River surged through Phoenix after heavy rain, with reservoir releases tracked by local agencies. Two deaths and one injury are recorded for the incident. Accounts of the scale and details of damage vary between reports.
