| Episode Narrative |
High-based and disorganized convection developed over the western South Plains during the afternoon hours of the 26th. These storms intensified as they moved eastward over the central South Plains during the evening hours and eventually resulted in a swath of damaging winds and large hail over parts of Lubbock and Crosby Counties. The most significant wind and hail was reported in northeastern Lubbock County where at least one utility pole was blown down east of New Deal. Gusts up to 62 mph and quarter size hail were measured at Idalou. |
