| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | In advance of a Canadian cold front, a dome of exceptionally hot and dry air overspread much of the Texas South Plains. High temperatures in many locations of 110 to 112 degrees were the hottest recorded since the infamous summer heatwave of 2011. At Lubbock, a new daily record high of 112 degrees was set which fell just two degrees shy of tying the all-time hottest temperature set on 27 June 1994. Amazingly, no heat-related illnesses were reported that required medical attention. This was fortunate particularly in areas of west and northwest Lubbock where old power grids blacked out at times during the afternoon. Also fortunate was the fact this was a dry heat as maximum heat indices were held to around 100 degrees. All event entries recorded highs of at least 110 degrees, with maximums of 112 set at both Lubbock International Airport and near Lake Alan Henry (Garza County). |
