Historical Storm Events in Andrews
Significant Hail Events
May 27, 2021 - Supercell Outbreak
A devastating supercell thunderstorm produced baseball-sized hail (2.75 inches) across Andrews County. Wind speeds reached 75 mph, causing widespread roof damage to commercial and residential properties. The storm lasted nearly 45 minutes, with continuous hail fall damaging hundreds of roofs throughout the city. Insurance claims exceeded $12 million in Andrews County alone.
April 12, 2018 - Easter Sunday Storm
This memorable storm system brought golf ball to tennis ball-sized hail (1.75-2.5 inches) to Andrews during Easter celebrations. The timing caught many residents off guard, with vehicles and roofs sustaining significant damage. The storm's slow movement prolonged the hail exposure, causing extensive granule loss and impact damage to asphalt shingles and membrane roofing systems.
June 8, 2015 - Record Setting Event
The largest recorded hailstone in Andrews County history fell during this supercell event - measuring 3.5 inches in diameter. This softball-sized hail caused catastrophic damage to roofing systems across Andrews, with many buildings requiring complete roof replacement. The storm produced a damage path 15 miles wide and 35 miles long.
Wind Damage Events
March 21, 2022 - Derecho Event
A rare derecho (widespread windstorm) brought sustained winds of 80+ mph to Andrews, with gusts reaching 95 mph. This straight-line wind event lasted over 30 minutes, causing extensive damage to roofing systems, HVAC units, and building facades. Unlike tornado damage, the derecho affected the entire city uniformly, overwhelming local roofing contractors for months.
May 15, 2019 - Tornado Touchdown
An EF-2 tornado touched down 3 miles southwest of Andrews, with peak winds of 125 mph. While the tornado itself missed the city center, the associated supercell brought 90+ mph straight-line winds to Andrews, causing significant roof damage to industrial facilities and commercial buildings near the Andrews County Airport area.
Ice Storm & Winter Weather Events
February 15-17, 2021 - Historic Freeze
The unprecedented winter storm that affected Texas brought temperatures as low as -5°F to Andrews, with sustained sub-freezing conditions for over 100 hours. Ice accumulation of up to 1 inch caused significant damage to roofing systems, gutters, and building facades. Many older buildings experienced roof membrane cracking due to extreme cold and ice expansion.
December 26, 2015 - Christmas Ice Storm
A significant ice storm deposited 0.5-0.75 inches of ice across Andrews County. The weight of ice accumulation caused structural damage to weaker roofing systems and extensive gutter damage throughout the city. Power outages lasted several days in some areas, preventing proper heating and leading to freeze damage in buildings.
