A strong thunderstorm is likely for northwestern Lubbock and Northeastern Hockley counties, according to the National Weather Service in Lubbock.
At 5:36 p.m. the weather service's doppler radar indicated a strong thunderstorm over extreme east central Hockley County, moving north at 10 mph.
Penny-size hail, winds up to 55 mph, occasional cloud-to-ground lightning and brief moderate downpours are possible with these storms.
Busty winds will result in areas of blowing dust that will reduce visibilities to below a mile at times. Stay away from high objects outdoors, such as trees. Seek shelter in a sturdy structure until these storms have passed.
