It looks flat, but there is still enough terrain to guide water into shallow drainages.

And so much rain fell so quickly.

Result: roads with two or more feet of floodwater, moving swift enough to overcome vehicles.

Here's a 1AM video from the Chaves county sheriff. He drove into water that was deep and swift enough that he got swept away while going to rescue stranded motorists.

Screen shot from video shows the sheriff standing on top of his vehicle, looking down at the flood waters that overwhelmed his vehicle.
