Law Enforcement Uses Boats To Rescue Residents After Heavy Rainfall Causes Severe Flooding
A sheriff's airboat moves through a submerged neighborhood, blue lights flashing as it passes houses and parked cars. Aboard is an evacuee holding a small dog. There is no narration, just the engine: FOX Weather's most-watched upload of the week lets the rescue footage carry the story.
"Law Enforcement Uses Boats To Rescue Residents After Heavy Rainfall Causes Severe Flooding" drew roughly 13,000 views in its first day. It marks a change from the channel's recent footage of drivers pushing through floodwater: here, the streets have become routes for emergency boats.
Another rescue report, "First Responders In Aztec, New Mexico, Bravely Withstood Strong, Flowing Floodwaters," describes responders saving residents and their dogs and cats as a home was swept into the Animas River. That upload is currently attracting views faster than the airboat clip.
The strongest daily momentum among the channel's videos belongs to "Tropical Disturbances Emerge In Pacific And Atlantic Basins." Its watchlist stretches from waters southeast of Hawaii to Mexico and an area south of Bermuda. A separate Atlantic update says the National Hurricane Center is monitoring that last area for possible development.
FOX Weather added 10,000 subscribers over the week, half its gain across the past month. Daily viewing is also above its usual level. Among nearby-sized broadcasters, Hook Global has had a particularly large viewing week, while 7 News Spotlight recorded no subscriber gain. For FOX Weather, rescue footage and the tropical outlook are doing different jobs: showing the consequences on the ground while keeping watch offshore.
Aztec is a city in northwestern New Mexico and the seat of San Juan County. Its estimated population in 2022 was 6,126.
