A round of severe thunderstorms brought large hail, damaging winds, and flash flooding to parts of West Texas late on the 1st. Severe thunderstorms initially developed during the late afternoon hours along the mountainous areas. These storms moved east into the adjacent plains, and cold pool interactions generated additional storms near a retreating warm front across the Permian Basin. An isolated supercell thunderstorm tracked across Martin County, and affected the Tarzan and Stanton areas with golfball size hail and damaging winds. Very explosive development occurred during the evening hours along a line from Big Spring to Snyder. These storms also resulted in similar severe weather reports.
