Local Weather History For August 11th...
2005 (11th-16th): The combination of a cold front, numerous outflow boundaries, a series of upper level disturbances, weak
winds aloft, and an unusually moist air mass, resulted in heavy precipitation falling across many locations of the South
and Rolling Plains from Thursday, August 11, through Tuesday, August 16th. Most locations across the NWS Lubbock forecast
area received around one inch or more, with a number of sites accumulating well over two inches. The heaviest rain fell at
Aspermont 3NE, with 8.09 inches, Snyder 3E with 7.23 inches, Silverton 7E with 6.18 inches, and Jayton 1S with 5.09
inches. The very heavy rains in some locations resulted in the flooding of some urban, low lying, and poor drainage areas.
Additionally, the Brazos - Double Mountain Fork located 10 miles south of Aspermont crested at 14.72 ft on August 15th,
above the flood stage of 8 ft, resulting in the minor lowland flooding of the river valley. The river receded back under
flood stage by Wednesday, August 17th.
