Hail in Scurry County, Texas

Lime to baseball sized hail fell across Snyder for at least 15 minutes. The hail was blown sideways at times by 60 to 70 mph winds. This resulted in numerous broken windows in both buildings and vehicles, as well as damaged siding, roofs, and window air conditioning units. A damage survey was performed the following day by the National Weather Service. The most significant damage was found in an area bounded by A, E, 30th, and 37th Streets. In this area, an apartment complex sustained damage to 110 windows and numerous cars parked in its parking lot. Also in this area was a car dealership that sustained major damage to at least 140 cars. Over a million dollars in damage was estimated to have been done just to county owned buildings and vehicles, with an additional quarter of a million dollars in damage to city owned buildings and vehicles. Ten to eighteen vehicles used by the Snyder Police Department were damaged. Three of these were removed from service because of the damage sustained. Hail scouring was evident on many roads throughout Snyder.
