A house was swept away by floodwaters after torrential rain hit New Mexico on July 8. A woman captured video of the destruction and realized the house floating down the water from the flash flood was her childhood best friend's home. Her friend was out of town during the flooding, and no one was inside the house at the time. Parts of the area in Albuquerque reported water levels reaching up to 20 feet.
