Local Weather History For June 26th...
2007: Thunderstorms initiated over the central Texas Panhandle during the late afternoon hours of the 26th. This activity
organized into a derecho, or long-lived extreme wind event, as it moved south across portions of the West Texas South
Plains and the Permian Basin. On the South Plains, areas of Yoakum, Terry, and Lynn Counties were hit particularly hard. A
thunderstorm wind gust up to 81 mph was measured in western Yoakum County. Damage to utility poles and trees was
widespread, but winds up to 75 mph and small hail combined to damage or destroy 20,000 acres of cotton in Lynn County.
Fortunately, no reports of structural damage were received and no injuries were reported. Total losses to electrical
co-ops and agricultural interests exceeded $1.5M.
