  • Excerpt From
    Excerpt from: The Centennial History of Lubbock: Hub City of the Plains By Paul H. Carlson Copyright 2008 by Lubbock Centennial Corporation Pages 125-129 The modern era began with the tornado in 1970. The huge storm caught Lubbock and its citizens by surprise. The day, May 11, had been warm and humid, and there was little indication of a major weather event. But, early that Monday evening, winds picked up, clouds moved in, and a bit of rain fell. About dusk, some accounts note, a twister struck near Sixty-sixth Street and University Avenue, leaving, before it dissipated, plenty of property damage. There may have been one or two other twisters involved. But, then, later, about 9:40 p.m., most reports suggest, a powerful, swirling tempest with very high winds, hail, and heavy rainfall dropped out of the dark, night sky near Nineteenth Street and University Avenue. This giant tornado cut a wide swath. As it roared and spun and circled its way through the city with winds that may have reached well over two hundred miles per hour, it moved toward and into the down-town area. Then, suddenly, it turned to the north to smash with massive destructiveness through the neighborhood north of Tenth Street and the Guadalupe community beyond Fourth Street. If in fact it was a single twister, it continued toward the north along the Amarillo highway, and before dissipating about ten o'clock, it had leveled homes in the Country Club addition and shattered businesses along north Highway 87. Personal injuries and loss of life were high.
