Hail Report Description: The National Weather Service in Lubbock, Texas conducted a damage survey of impacts resultant from severe thunderstorm activity occurring across the area on Saturday, August 27 2005.An outbreak of severe thunderstorms developed across the NWS Lubbock forecast and warning area of responsibility during the late afternoon on Saturday and continued through the pre-midnight hours. A mesoscale convective system, or a large and organized complex of intense thunderstorms, developed as upper level energy pushed into the Texas Panhandle from the northwest and combined with numerous surface fronts generated from previous thunderstorm outflows. Hockley county: The Texas Tech/West Texas mesonet station, located 4 miles south of Levelland, measured a wind gust of 57 mph from the north at 8:40 PM CST. Quarter sized hail was reported at 8:35 PM CST by the Levelland Fire Department. The impact from the hail driven by the damaging wind resulted in widespread damage to cotton crops/fields across the county.

Hail Damage Risk for Your Home +

Hail reports describe hail by diameter, often comparing stone size to familiar objects like peas, quarters, golf balls, and softballs. Use this guide as a starting point for possible hail damage to your roof, siding, gutters, vents, windows, and exterior. Actual hail damage depends on hail hardness, density, wind speed, impact angle, roof age, shingle condition, roof pitch, roofing material, installation quality, and prior storm damage.

Pea
0.25″
Low

Usually too small to cause hail damage to most sound asphalt roofs, siding, or gutters.

Mothball
0.50″
Sub-Severe Watch

Below the NWS severe-hail threshold, but not always harmless. Repeated small hail can scuff surfaces, wear aging shingles, and loosen protective granules over time.

Penny
0.75″
Minor / Watch

Below the NWS severe-hail threshold, but roof hail damage is still possible on older, brittle, poorly installed, or previously damaged shingles. May also mark screens, vents, gutters, and soft metal.

Nickel
0.88″
Minor / Watch

Still below the severe-hail threshold, but large enough to leave visible marks on soft metal and add wear to older or hail-weakened roof shingles.

Quarter
1.00″
Watch

The NWS severe-hail threshold. Quarter-size hail can bruise shingles, dent soft metal, and create roof hail damage worth checking.

Half Dollar
1.25″
Watch

More likely to dent gutters, vents, flashing, and siding. Hail damage risk rises quickly on older roofs or hail-weakened shingles.

Ping Pong / Walnut
1.50″
Likely

Hail damage becomes more likely, including bruised shingles, granule loss, dented siding, and damaged roof vents.

Golf Ball
1.75″
Likely

Often causes roof hail damage, cracked shingles, dented gutters, damaged flashing, and siding impacts. A roof inspection is recommended.

Hen Egg
2.00″
Serious

Can crack or puncture shingles, expose mat, dent siding, and cause widespread hail damage across the roof and exterior.

Tennis Ball
2.50″
Serious

Can cause heavy roof hail damage, punctured siding, broken skylights, damaged vents, and widespread exterior damage.

Baseball
2.75″
Major

Major hail damage is likely, including severe roof impacts, damaged siding, broken windows, and possible major roof repairs.

Tea Cup / Large Apple
3.00″
Major

Can cause heavy hail damage across the roof, siding, gutters, windows, and exterior. Significant repairs are often needed.

Softball
4.00″
Extreme

Destructive hail damage. Can severely damage roofing materials, siding, windows, gutters, vents, vehicles, and exterior surfaces.

Grapefruit
4.50″
Extreme

Catastrophic hail damage risk for roofs, windows, vehicles, siding, gutters, and exterior surfaces.

Source: NOAA / National Weather Service hail size references are used for hail-size comparisons and the 1.00″ severe-hail threshold. Damage descriptions are general homeowner guidance, not official NOAA/NWS damage ratings. Sub-severe hail under 1.00″ is below the severe threshold, but that does not mean “no roof damage.” Penny- to nickel-size hail can still contribute to granule loss, cosmetic surface marks, and added wear, especially on older, brittle, poorly installed, or previously damaged roofs.

Garza County · 1,683 Homes in County
Wind Report Description: The National Weather Service in Lubbock, Texas conducted a damage survey of impacts resultant from severe thunderstorm activity occurring across the area on Saturday, August 27 2005.An outbreak of severe thunderstorms developed across the NWS Lubbock forecast and warning area of responsibility during the late afternoon on Saturday and continued through the pre-midnight hours. A mesoscale convective system, or a large and organized complex of intense thunderstorms, developed as upper level energy pushed into the Texas Panhandle from the northwest and combined with numerous surface fronts generated from previous thunderstorm outflows. Garza county: A severe thunderstorm produced a swath of significant damage in a relatively isolated area in Garza county. The zone of greatest Impact occurred approximately 8 miles to the west of downtown Post, TX on Highway 380. The pattern of damage was consistent with a thunderstorm downburst. The downburst resulted from what is known as a rear flank downdraft (RFD). An RFD can form in severe thunderstorms as air high above begins to sink rapidly on the backside or rear of the thunderstorm. The RFD can, at times, play a significant role in the formation of a tornado. RFD winds can produce damage comparable to tornado damage, however there will generally be a circulation debris pattern evident when surveying tornado damage.The downburst pattern was bounded from 8 miles west of Post, or beginning at the intersection of Highway 380 and County Road 125, to beyond a mile just past County Road 105. The damage pattern was observed up to two miles south of this location along FM 1313.The debris field started with a snapped stop sign at the intersection of Highway 380 and County Road 125 with 3 cotton trailers and a small cylindrical oil tank blown over, all from a north to south direction. Following this location, along Highway 380, a series of power poles and lines were blown over, snapped, and/or ripped from the ground for a stretch of 1 mile by the downburst wind. All of these poles were blown from a north to south direction.Farther to the south between county roads 105/115/125 and along Fm1313, numerous large trees were snapped and/or uprooted and a few center pivot irrigation systems were blown over. A manufactured home located on County Road 125 sustained damage with layers of shingles lifted off the roof, landing a short distance in the backyard. The front attached patio/walkway was pushed toward the left-front of the home by gusty wind. The debris at this location was blown from an east to west direction and was likely the result of moderate east/southeast inflow in the immediate vicinity of the rotating mesocyclone in the severe thunderstorm. Noted was a small shed and trees adjacent to the home that sustained no impactsfrom the apparent less than severe inflow winds responsible for peeling off the shingles from the roof. No rotation was evident in the pattern of debris fall from the shingles.The Texas Tech/West Texas mesonet station, located 5 miles south of Graham, measured a 69 mph wind gust from the north at 6:35 PM CST. Graham is located approximately 6 miles southeast of the manufactured home. Interviewing local utility crews, a total of 49 power poles were destroyed and several acres of cotton were damaged and/or destroyed.

Wind Damage Risk for Your Home +

Storm reports list thunderstorm wind gusts in mph. The NWS marks storms as severe at 58+ mph, but wind damage to your home depends on roof age, shingle condition, installation, exposure, nearby trees, and prior hail or wind damage.

Below Severe
Under 58 mph
Minor

Usually little damage to a sound roof, but loose shingles, flashing, or debris may shift.

Severe
58–74 mph
Watch

Can loosen shingles, lift flashing, break limbs, and damage gutters, siding, fences, or trim.

Damaging
75–90 mph
Serious

Can peel shingles, damage vents, tear siding, rip gutters, and expose weak roof areas.

Extreme
90+ mph
Major

Can cause major roof covering loss, tree damage, broken windows, and structural damage.

Source: NOAA / National Weather Service storm reports. Gusts may be measured or estimated; actual wind damage varies by roof condition, exposure, and prior hail or wind damage.

Tornado Damage Risk for Your Home +

After a tornado, the National Weather Service assigns an EF rating from EF0 to EF5 based on surveyed damage. The rating estimates wind speed from what the tornado damaged, so actual damage can vary by construction quality, roof age, garage doors, windows, trees, debris, and how close the home was to the tornado path.

EF0
65–85 mph
Light

Can peel shingles, damage gutters or siding, break tree limbs, and toss loose outdoor items.

EF1
86–110 mph
Moderate

Can strip roof covering, damage exterior doors, break windows, snap trees, and cause heavier siding or gutter damage.

EF2
111–135 mph
Serious

Can tear off large sections of roofing, break or uproot trees, destroy weaker structures, and cause major exterior damage.

EF3–EF5
136+ mph
Severe

Can remove roofs and walls, destroy large portions of homes, toss vehicles, and cause severe to total destruction near the path.

Source: NOAA / National Weather Service. EF ratings are assigned after a post-storm damage survey and are based on observed damage, not a direct measurement at every home.

Frequently asked questions

for homeowners, buyers & sellers
How many storm reports were recorded on August 27, 2005?

Our records show 38 hail, 45 wind, and 1 tornado reports on August 27, 2005, compiled from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. The most recent was reported on August 27, 2005.

What was the largest hail reported on August 27, 2005?

The largest hail size in these storm-report records on August 27, 2005 is 4.25″, reported near Muleshoe, TX.

Some reports show UNK instead of a wind speed or tornado rating — what does that mean?

Wind reports come three ways: measured from an instrument, estimated from the damage observed, or UNK when no speed was recorded. Tornadoes show UNK until the National Weather Service finishes a damage survey and assigns an EF rating. UNK simply means that value was not available when the report was filed.

A report appeared near my home on August 27, 2005 — is my roof damaged?

Not necessarily. A storm report shows that hail, wind, or a tornado was observed nearby, not that any specific home was hit. To find out whether your property was affected, check an address-level hail report, and if it looks significant, ask a local pro about a Remote Hail Inspection before scheduling roof work.

I am buying or selling a home — how do these on August 27, 2005 reports help?

If a storm passed through, a roof or exterior may have damage that is hard to see, or a recent repair may trace back to it. Buyers can ask better questions before closing, and sellers can document the home condition up front — both starting from the property address rather than a whole region.

How do I check what happened at a specific address on August 27, 2005?

Use the address search to pull a free address-level hail report for any property — no phone number or email required. It shows recent hail activity for that address so you know whether a closer roof or exterior review makes sense.

Where does this storm report data come from, and what are its limits?

Storm reports on this page are public reports from storm events on August 27, 2005 across the United States, sourced from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. They show where hail, wind, or tornado activity was reported, but they do not confirm damage at any specific property. Report locations, sizes, and times may be approximate and can vary from what an individual home experienced. For property-specific hail history, use an address-level hail report or contact a participating local professional for a remote hail inspection. Pros inclusion is not an endorsement, and contacting a professional does not confirm damage at any property.
