| Episode Narrative |
Easterly winds behind a weak cold front allowed for low level moisture to move into southeast New Mexico. This easterly flow and daytime heating resulted in orographic lift along the Guadalupe Mountains, which produced thunderstorms. |
| Event Narrative |
Several side roll irrigation sprinklers were destroyed by a strong wind gust in Atoka, NM. The time of this report was estimated according to radar and another wind gust recorded by the Artesia ASOS. |
