Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA very active severe weather event impacted the South Plains of west Texas during the late afternoon and evening of the 19th. Isolated thunderstorms initially developed along a pre-existing outflow boundary from the central Texas Panhandle southeastward over the northern Rolling Plains. These storms produced large hail, damaging winds, and at least one tornado in northern Cottle County. ||Thunderstorms rapidly became widespread over the South Plains during the evening hours. Many of the storms were severe with large hail up to the size of golf balls and damaging winds in excess of 70 mph. Damage was largely limited to utility poles, lines, and trees. Losses due to agricultural damages, however, were estimated to exceed $1.1 million.
