14:35	BROWNFIELD	TERRY	A Texas Tech University West Texas mesonet site near Brownfield measured a wind gust of 58 mph.
18:18	ARMSTRONG	KENEDY	The Texas Coastal Oceanic Observation System platform at Rincon del San Jose, within Laguna Madre about one-third north of the Willacy/Kenedy County line, recorded a peak gust to 93 mph (80.86 knots) at 730 PM CDT. This location is used as a proxy to the nearby land mass in Coastal Kenedy County, and based on the intensity of the supercell, it is certain that similar wind gusts occurred at this location. It is possible that the event produced a tornado - but lack of ground truth observations or a survey (in a very remote area accessible only by water craft) as well as the duration of the strong and shifting winds (nearly 20 minutes), as well as no sharply lowered surface pressure, suggest a rear-flank downburst as the strongest winds were from the north/northeast.
19:31	SILVERTON	BRISCOE	A Texas Tech University West Texas mesonet site near Silverton measured severe wind gusts from 1931 CST through 1932 CST. A peak wind gust of 62 mph was measured at 1932 CST.
