Local Weather History For March 12th...

2007: Afternoon thunderstorms produced locally heavy rainfall on the 12th, and capped off a three day period that saw
widespread two to five inch rainfall totals over the South Plains. Flash flooding was largely limited to urban areas,
however, some damage was reported. The greatest impacts were in Lubbock County where flooding of many city streets
resulted in more than twenty stalled vehicles and up to $120,000 in damages. No injuries were reported.
