| Episode Narrative |
A weak shortwave progressing through upper level southerly flow combined with instability along an eastward mixing dryline to produce severe thunderstorms across west Texas and southeastern New Mexico. A strong low level jet and an approaching cold front increased both instability and lift. |Though a tornado watch was issued for much of the Permian Basin and the upper Trans-Pecos, large hail ended up being the primary threat. No tornadoes were reported with these storms. |
| Event Narrative |
Pea to nickel size hail fell in and around Hobbs and Eunice. |
