| Episode Narrative |
Scattered thunderstorms erupted during the mid morning hours of the 10th over the plains of eastern New Mexico, southwest Texas, and the western South Plains and Permian Basin. This activity developed as a strong upper air storm system ejected eastward from the Desert Southwest.
The morning convection produced large hail up to the size of quarters and severe wind gusts as it overspread the western and central South Plains. Thunderstorm activity then pushed eastward during the day and at least one additional storm became severe with large hail near Jayton (Kent County). The only report of damaging weather occurred in Hale County where a lightning strike damaged a tree and broke windows at a residence in Plainview. |
