圣胡安河洪水持续：希普罗克大桥10月24日凌晨关闭，救援连夜展开
2026年10月24日凌晨，新墨西哥州西北部圣胡安河沿岸洪水持续，连接纳瓦霍族社区与外界交通要道的希普罗克大桥因安全原因关闭，救援行动连夜展开。据纳瓦霍族警察局通报，救援人员在夜间将洪水围困区域的居民转移到安全地带，仅一夜就完成20次救援，多次行动涉及多人。
与此同时，希普罗克以南圣胡安河沿岸出现停电，附近一座污水处理设施受洪水影响，一度暂停运转后已恢复，但污水流入河道的风险仍令下游社区担忧。
希普罗克所在的四角地区本周连日暴雨，圣胡安河与阿尼马斯河水位上涨，纳瓦霍族警方在10月23日的圣胡安县应急简报中已敦促可能受影响地区的居民提前做好撤离准备，包括为家人和牲畜安排接应。纳瓦霍公园与休闲部门10月23日关闭了附近的四角纪念碑，10月24日因条件不安全继续关闭。救援重点集中在法明顿至希普罗克一带，当地警方表示警力已十分吃紧，呼吁居民不要冒险涉水，听从疏散指引。

San Juan River Flooding Continues: Shiprock Bridge Closed Early Oct. 24 as Rescues Ran Overnight
In the early hours of October 24, 2026, flooding continued along the San Juan River in northwestern New Mexico. The Shiprock Bridge, a key link between Navajo Nation communities and the outside, was closed for safety reasons, and rescue operations ran through the night. According to the Navajo Police Department, rescuers moved residents out of flood-surrounded areas to safety, completing 20 rescues in a single night, several involving multiple people.
Meanwhile, areas south of Shiprock along the San Juan River lost power, and a nearby wastewater treatment facility was affected by the flooding; it paused operations before resuming, though the risk of sewage reaching the river still worries downstream communities.
The Four Corners region around Shiprock has seen days of heavy rain this week, raising the San Juan and Animas rivers. In an October 23 San Juan County emergency briefing, Navajo police had already urged residents in potentially affected areas to prepare to evacuate, including arranging transport for family members and livestock. The Navajo Parks and Recreation Department closed the nearby Four Corners Monument on October 23, and it remained closed on October 24 due to unsafe conditions. Rescue efforts were concentrated between Farmington and Shiprock, and police said their resources were stretched thin, urging residents not to risk wading through floodwater and to follow evacuation guidance.
