Severe thunderstorms developed in the late afternoon and early evening across the eastern Texas Panhandle as an upper level disturbance interacted with a moist and unstable air mass.  These storms produced golf ball to softball size hail while multiple brief tornado touchdowns from the same wall cloud were reported in Wolf Creek Park.  No damage or injuries were reported from any of the tornado touchdowns, however one staff member from an archeological project in Wolf Creek Park was injured when hail struck his arm.
