| Episode Narrative |
Isolated severe storms formed across the eastern plains of New Mexico during the afternoon and evening of the 10th. Unfortunately, due to there location, verifying reports were few and far between. Nickel size hail was reported on the northeast side of Raton from a strong storm that moved southeast out of Colorado. It's likely that greater than quarter size hail fell over Johnson Mesa as the storm grew in size and intensity after the nickel hail report. Earlier in the afternoon, a slow moving severe storm tracked across De Baca County, producing severe wind gusts which downed tree limbs. |
| Event Narrative |
Tree limbs approximately four feet long and 3 inches in diameter were blown down. |
