Local Weather History For February 24th...

2000: An unusually early bout of severe thunderstorms visited much of the South Plains this afternoon as rich moisture
from the Gulf of Mexico was drawn north into the Southern Plains. By late afternoon, a moderately unstable air mass was in
place across West Texas ahead of a dryline exiting eastern New Mexico. Small clusters of thunderstorms formed along this
dryline, moved northeastward, and produced hail up to golf ball size and wind gusts up to 60 mph. This severe weather
event was unique considering that prior to this day only five total severe weather reports were recorded in the month of
February in this region. This day alone, there were 18 separate reports of hail and strong winds.
