Local Weather History For August 1st...

2013: Scattered thunderstorms developed across the South Plains this afternoon, with the most concentrated area of storms
located in Lubbock County. Several outflow boundaries collided near the Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport which
created two brief EF0 landspouts in close proximity to each other. NWS employees and the airports contract weather
observer both witnessed these nearly stationary landspouts over open land west of the airport.'
