The wider storm
An active spring weather pattern brought another round of severe thunderstorms to eastern New Mexico on June 17, 2019. A weak upper level wave moving slowly east through the region combined with deep atmospheric moisture and strong instability to produce scattered showers and thunderstorms. Thunderstorms first developed along the central mountain chain during the early afternoon before pushing east across the eastern plains through the late evening hours. Large hail was the main impact once again with many spotters reporting quarter to ping pong ball size hail. Very heavy rainfall with these storms also led to flash flooding over parts of Roosevelt County. A tornado was also captured near Encino.
Began near Rosebud (35.4500, -103.4500).
