What the National Weather Service wrote

Large hail fell northwest of Higgins. Hail sizes were mostly dime size to quarter size, but a few hailstones were slightly larger than a golf ball. This resulted in damage to a fire engine that was en route to a wildfire caused by lightning.

The wider storm

Isolated storms affected the combined Panhandles during the evening of July 11th, some of which resulted in large hail in the eastern Texas Panhandle. Additionally, a large squall line pushed through the combined Panhandles during the overnight hours of July 11th into the 12th. This complex of storms brought damaging winds to the region along with an instance of quarter size hail.

Began near Higgins (36.1700, -100.1300).
