Local Weather History For June 24th...
2008: Severe thunderstorms that originated in the plains of eastern New Mexico moved east into the South Plains late this
evening. These storms produced large hail up to the size of quarters and damaging thunderstorm winds. The most significant
impact from the storms occurred in the Brownfield vicinity where a number of utility poles were destroyed high winds
accompanied by dime to quarter size hail. The very next evening featured another round of destructive storms in the
region.
