Hi frank, 

 

Forgive me for poaching Hywel’s shot.

 

I guess he would have said, “In time, this flood will fade into the background 
noise of geological history.”  Or am I wrong about that.Here! Here’s the 
cudgel.  You take a whack at it.  

 

By the way, we’ve had six inches of rain since the beginning of July.  No 
record-making event, to be sure, but it is interesting that it’s happening both 
there and here.  Usually, the country is a seesaw.

Looks like the Loch Ness Monster traveled up the Rio Grande, the Santa Fe River 
into Arroyo Chamiso?

I have an arroyo behind my house in San Ildefonso which is also wide and flat 
which had this behaviour a few years ago during a flash flood.  6' tall 
standing waves for a good 30 minutes.

This is local in Santa Fe (Arroyo Chamiso bike trail I think near Chavez 
center).  Non-flash-flood sandy base is normally flat, about 2 pct grade maybe 
4-5 feet below trail.  What is the frequency and how does this occur?  Why is 
this happening next to the path and not out in the middle of the arroyo?

 

Solitons?  Skipping stones?  What?
