Event narrative (NOAA)
Supercell thunderstorms (very rare for November in this area) affected much of El Paso. The strongest, which actually weakened before moving into the United States, produced golf ball hail over far east El Paso into Horizon City. This caused record breaking insurance claims for a single hail event with a total of $200 million damage to vehicles and $100 million to homes. This doubled the previous record from 9-16-09. Flooding also occurred due to excessive hail amounts plugging up drains.
