Rain in Ojinaga: What You Need to Know

A border town across from Presidio, Texas, at the confluence of the Río Conchos and Rio Grande, Ojinaga experiences a climate typical of Chihuahua, where North American monsoon convective storms governs most rainfall.

Flash flooding in normally-dry arroyos across the desert plain shows up often enough in this part of Chihuahua that it's built into how people in Ojinaga think about the weather, not treated as a rare event.

Ojinaga's radar coverage draws on Mexico's national water authority, CONAGUA, with scans updating every 5 minutes. What lands on the map is the rain itself over Ojinaga — not an averaged forecast for the surrounding region.
