Topic > El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez Flood History

El Paso has seen its fair share of heat, drought, storms and floods. The complication the binational region will need to focus on will be post-flash flood management. To implement an early warning period, the meteorologist must anticipate the “climate whiplash.” Geologists have already figured out why the ground can't naturally absorb rainwater and leave it up to the city to find a way to divert or control the runoff. There are many ways to get water away from the city. This article will bring to light some past and current systems in place. In the binational area of ​​El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez, flooding has become a way of life due to the lack of rain and desert climate. Fortunately, meteorologists, geologists, and city planners continually work to improve the city before a storm in order to mitigate any financial hardship during and after a flood. The city must take into account past events to improve infrastructure. They also rely on meteorologists to study how the weather reacts so they can anticipate the next system and how it will affect this region. The main experts contributing to this fundamental research are Geologists, who have brought to light causes and effects during drastic climate events. This report will document the effects on infrastructure, stormwater management, climate whiplash, and the geologist's reflections on the desert-flood relationship. El Paso and Ciudad Juarez share much more than a border. The Paso del Norte region is a desert and receives an average of nine inches of rain over a year. This is a double-edged sword for the binational area. On the one hand, the lack of rain limits the amount of moisture, however, the downside is when it happens... middle of paper... the riverbed soon overflows and floods the valley with nowhere to go. on the left the lowest altitudes underwater. Conclusion and Recommendations In conclusion, the only way the border area can move forward and save thousands of dollars is to get ahead of the next whiplash. It's not a question of whether it will happen again, but when the next floods will hit. Protecting El Paso's natural water must be a top priority. Bottom line, the only way Borderland can move forward and save thousands of dollars is to get ahead of the next whiplash. It's not a question of whether it will happen again, but when the next floods will hit. Protecting El Paso's natural waters will always be a top priority. With the assistance of the meteorologist and geologist El Paso has the opportunity to improve defenses before excessive storms.
