1984: A very long-lived supercell erupted in northern Hale and southern Swisher Counties late this day before arcing 90
degrees to the right of the upper wind flow and tracking due southeast across Briscoe, Floyd, Motley, Cottle, King, Knox, and Haskell Counties. As this supercell crossed the Floyd and Motley County line at 7:20 PM, strong tornadic signatures became evident on the Lubbock WSR-74C weather radar. It wasnt until 7:44 PM that storm spotters with the Matador Fire Department observed a tornado develop five miles WNW of Matador moving toward the city. This F3 tornado hit Matador at 7:52 PM destroying 27 homes |
