Wider weather episode

During the early to late evening hours on the 4th of June severe thunderstorms moved through the southwest to south central Texas Panhandle. The main supercell that moved in first from eastern New Mexico, quickly intensified in Deaf Smith County, where it briefly produced a weak tornado that overturned a couple of irrigation pivots. The storm then continued to produce ping pong ball to even an instance of baseball size hail as it moved into Randall County.
