Very hot temperatures during the afternoon was enough to break an inversion that resulted in scattered thunderstorms within an unstable airmass. With a deeply mixed boundary layer, the primary hazard from these thunderstorms were microburst winds. However, very strong instability over the Rolling Plains did result in large hail. Furthermore, strong outflow winds well away from convective activity resulted in severe wind gusts.
High winds reports from the Texas Tech University West Texas mesonet:
64 mph at Graham (Garza County), 62 mph at Dimmitt (Castro County), 60 mph at Hart (Castro County), and 59 mph at Childress (Childress County).
