Local Weather History For May 9th...
2006: Two isolated supercell thunderstorms produced strong winds and hail up to two inches in diameter (reported at
Roaring Springs) over portions of Dickens and Motley Counties. Later this evening, a very strong right moving supercell
worked in combination with a left moving storm to produce a F2 tornado in Childress. One person was injured when a tree
fell and struck him, and $5.7 million damage was estimated. Additionally, baseball size hail was reported at Brice, 8
miles southwest of Memphis, 3 miles south of Estelline, and in Childress, with the storm that eventually become tornadic
in Childress.
