Mother nature did put on a nice show for us at the Red Hills Gas Plant where I am employed 21 miles WNW of  Jal in Lea County.

Instead it was northeastern and eastern New Mexico's turn to get beat up by mother nature. Quarter (1.00" in dia) to hen egg (2.00" in dia) size fell in several locations yesterday afternoon including the Clovis and Portales areas. No tornadoes were reported in New Mexico.
