Dense Fog in Lamb, Texas

Fog developed over portions of the South Plains during the morning hours of the 10th, and the fog briefly became dense at a few locations. Low visibilities contributed to a fatal automobile accident near Amherst (Lamb County) around 08:30 CST. A 42 year-old female was killed when she rear-ended a farm tractor on Texas Farm to Market Road 1055 just north of the city.

A more widespread dense fog event occurred over the extreme southeastern Panhandle and the northern Rolling Plains during the overnight hours of the 11th and early morning hours of the 12th. A teen-aged boy died following an auto accident in Paducah (Cottle County) during the late evening hours of the 11th. Although weather was not a contributing factor toward the cause of the accident, air ambulance operations were prohibited due to low visibilities in fog, and the patient died before he could be transported to one of the region's hospitals.
