Local Weather History For December 1st...
2009 (1st-2nd): A mix of wintry precipitation began to fall over portions of the western South Plains during the pre-dawn
hours on the 1st. Periods of mixed precipitation and occasional snow continued to overspread the region during the daytime
hours until a band of heavier snowfall developed over the central South Plains during the evening hours and persisted into
the early morning of the 2nd as a potent upper air storm system passed over the region. The heaviest snow fell along a
narrow swath from near Hale Center to south of Floydada. Observers reported that between six and seven inches fell south
of Floydada, but the maximum amount of snow on the ground was four inches. The wintry precipitation resulted in hazardous
travel conditions that led to eighteen accidents in Lubbock, but reported incidents elsewhere were minimal. The heaviest
snow of four inches was measured at the Floydada Country Club.
