KLBB Radar
Today will be hotter and drier with some areas off the Caprock approaching 100 degrees. Tonight will also be warm and clear with lows in the upper 60s to mid 70s.
This weekend will be hot and dry. Highs will top out near 100 degrees, beneath mostly sunny skies. Modest southerly breezes and somewhat drier air (compared to what we have experienced most of this summer) will make it feel like the more typical West Texas summer heat. Low thunder chances will creep back into the forecast next week, favoring locations near the TX/NM line.

 

 

 

Local Weather History For July 18th...
1967: A severe hailstorm with giant hailstones battered the Idalou area late this afternoon devastating crops and
inflicting heavy damage to homes and businesses. Hardly a building along 1st Street was said to have escaped damage as
hundreds of windows on the north sides of buildings were shattered. Maturing cotton and fully-headed grain fields in the
vicinity were obliterated by giant hailstones up to grapefruit size. Agricultural losses were said to be $500,000 with at
least $200,000 in property damage.
