Local Weather History For July 20th...

1950 (20th-21st): A four-hour downpour deluged areas of southeast Lamb County late this night into the morning hours of
Friday the 21st. Highway 84 between Littlefield and Anton was impassable to motorists from water estimated as high as
three feet over the roadway. A draw along County Road 168 south of Spade was said to have had seven feet of water at one
point. At least eight cars were immobilized by the floodwaters with their occupants either forced to wade through
wait-deep water or await rescue. Some of the rescues were courtesy of a regional bus driven by R.A. Austin from Clovis to
Lubbock who took motorists to safety in Lubbock. One Lubbock motorist flipped his car three times after entering the
floodwaters at highway speeds. Fortunately, the motorist was said to have been uninjured in the crash.
