Local Weather History For June 25th...

1965: Two tornadoes occurred this evening; one west of Ropesville and the other Castro and Swisher Counties. The first
tornado was described as small, but still managed to uproot trees and tear up power lines for 3/4 of a mile on the R.P. Race farm west of Ropesville. Non-tornadic winds from this same storm ripped off the roof from a 60-foot barn at the E.L. Davis farm east of Levelland and caused heavy damage to farm buildings at the Pete Podd place. This storm also produced baseball size hail that dented several autos traveling on Highway 114 near Smyer. The second tornado cut a 20-mile path over open farm land from about 15 miles east of Dimmitt to about five miles south of Happy. Fortunately there was no known property damage with this latter tornado. |
