The National Weather Service in Amarillo issued a weather statement for the northern part of the 806. This includes Deaf Smith County and Hereford, which is why I am reposting this for your awareness.

"Showers and storms across the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles will
have the potential to produce brief landspouts through the
afternoon hours. These brief spin ups would be short lived in
nature and unlikely to produce damage"

Enjoy the rain showers, hopefully it doesn't get too crazy. If it does, we'll be here.

The splash pad has its opening day at noon, tomorrow. If you aren't aware, the new splash pad is next to the Skate Park on Western Circle Dr. We hope to see everyone there!
