Select a dot or a path for the report. NWS survey teams walked the shaded paths after the storm; each is drawn at the widest width they found, so it can look wider than the damage at any one spot. Gust lines are estimates: the highest gust of the day in NOAA's hourly 2.5 km wind analysis (URMA), which fills in between weather stations. They aren't measurements at any building.

In Texas, one supercell tracked from southeastern Swisher County across Briscoe and Floyd counties into southwestern Motley County, dropping a long swath of hail more than 4 inches across.1 In eastern Floyd County, a stone measured with calipers at 5.20 inches across fell between 5:29 and 6:20 p.m. CST, and 5-inch hail fell west-southwest of Matador at 6:55 p.m. CST. No damage was reported from either.1,2

In the Texas Panhandle, hail up to 3 inches across fell northeast of Pringle in Hutchinson County between 5:45 and 6:21 p.m. CST, and an EF1 tornado with winds up to 110 mph passed just north of Miami in Roberts County with no known damage to the town.3,4 In eastern Colorado, golf-ball-size hail fell south of Kit Carson at 7:05 p.m. MST, and windows were knocked out of buildings there.5 Photos from the public showed hail up to 3 inches across in Douglas County, Nebraska, at 3:30 p.m. CST.6
