Local Weather History For November 28th...
|
|
2001 (27th-28th): After two rare tornadoes earlier this month on the South Plains, late November brought a reality check
to the region in the form of a winter storm. On the 27th, a strong upper-level storm system translated across the southern Rockies, into far southwestern Texas, and then across central Texas by the 28th. Cold air in advance of this system was deep enough to support snow over much of the South Plains with sleet initially falling in the Rolling Plains. The sleet was quickly replaced by steady snow during the afternoon. By midday on the 28th with snow having drawn to a close, one to four inches of snow covered the entire South Plains and extreme southern Panhandle with between six and ten inches reported over Cottle, Dickens, King, Kent and Stonewall Counties. The heavy snow hampered travel throughout the region for another day. |
