Local Weather History For February 7th...

1980: In advance of a very strong cold front racing south, thunderstorms developed in Parmer and Castro Counties early
this evening. These storms quickly intensified and produced wind damage near Oklahoma Lane where ten cotton trailers were
destroyed and one combine blown 50 feet across a field. Many area homes suffered roof and window damage. As the storm
continues northeast into Castro County, wind damage reports followed with some indications of damage suggesting a tornado
had occurred. Although no eyewitness accounts were received, the extent and nature of debris patterns led NWS officials to
classify this event as a tornado. What makes this event even more interesting is that a thin layer of ice followed by a
brief period of sleet preceded the apparent tornado hampering efforts to restore power. After the storm passed, two to
three inches of snow blanketed the area.
