May 28, 2007
Scattered thunderstorms produced large hail, damaging winds and very heavy rainfall over the west Texas South Plains during the evening hours of the 28th. Most damage occurred over northern Lynn County, where large hail destroyed young cotton crops. Crops also were damaged in Hockley, Swisher and Terry Counties. Slow storm movements attributed to flash flooding in Lynn and Floyd Counties that stranded motorists and threatened structures.
