The ongoing flooding has already caused significant damage, with over 500 homes affected and a quarter of Archuleta County's roads rendered impassable. The incoming storm is expected to exacerbate the situation, with rivers like the San Juan and Piedra predicted to crest above flood stages. Heavy rain and snow could lead to dangerous conditions, including further flooding in saturated areas and travel disruptions due to snow accumulation and high winds. Emergency response efforts may be delayed, increasing risks for residents in affected areas.
