Flooding in Southwest prompts evacuations in 4 states

A resident wades through deep mud outside a home. From above, trees stand surrounded by water and swollen rivers spill beyond their banks. NBC News' brief Southwest flood report shows the damage behind evacuation orders across the Four Corners region.

The report says residents in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah have been evacuated, with many still waiting to return home after days of rain. Footage shows submerged houses and vehicles, inundated residential streets and overflowing waterways.

"Residents across the Southwest remain on high alert with the threat of more rain today that could make a dangerous flooding situation even worse," the anchor says.

The Short drew nearly 169,000 views in its first 12 hours, an unusually fast start for NBC News' short-form reports. The flooding also led the channel's October 25 Nightly News broadcast, which reported on evacuations across the West.
