[Philmont]: Philmont Weather report

passing on a Base Camp weather report from a staffer ...
The past two days at Philmont have been most unusual. In the late afternoon we've had very severe thunder and lightning storms with lots of rain and hail. We had so much rain yesterday that the staff lounge flooded and several walkways washed out. In one of the culverts out near the Welcome Center hail piled up about 2 feet deep after washing down from higher points. At night, it had been pretty cold as well. I sure feel sorry for the campers in the backcountry
