LUBBOCK, Texas – A powerful supercell thunderstorm trekked across eastern New Mexico and West Texas on Thursday, producing tornadoes, large hail, damaging winds and flash flooding.

The storm traveled more than 80 miles, producing its first tornadoes around Causey, New Mexico , and not giving up before reaching Lubbock, Texas, during the evening hours, where most of the impacts were felt.
