| Episode Narrative | A subtle shortwave in northwest flow aloft helped to spark thunderstorms across western New Mexico. As storms moved east into better moisture, they became severe and produced large hail and damaging winds. Areas in and southeast of Roswell were the hardest hit and sustained significant damage from the powerful straight line winds. The Roswell Industrial Airport was on the southwest edge of the strongest winds. |
| Event Narrative | Hail covered the ground. |
