Scattered thunderstorms developed during the late evening across the northeast Texas Panhandle as a cold front encountered an unstable airmass. A few reports of hail were received, but one storm in particular produced wind-driven large hail and destructive winds. Following the frontal passage, rapidly rising pressures within a tightening pressure gradient led to widespread strong winds across the western 4/5ths of the Texas Panhandle. Between 9:00 PM CST on May 7 and 2:00 AM CST on May 8, sustained winds of 40 to 52 MPH and gusts of 58 to 66 MPH were reported.
