2004: A compact cluster of strong to severe thunderstorms developed this evening in far eastern New Mexico before evolving
into a squall line and bow echo over the western South Plains. For the next four hours, this compact mesoscale convective system produced 23 separate reports of high winds and some large hail as it exited the South Plains into the Rolling Plains. Some wind gusts were as high as 80 mph as measured by a West Texas mesonet site five miles northeast of Abernathy. Damage reports were mostly confined to downed power lines, power poles and tree limbs, however in southeast Hale County significant damage was inflicted to a barn, a metal building and two center pivot irrigation systems. |
