The Lamesa Boys and Girls Club was supposed to hold a COVID-19 vaccination drive Monday, but it was cancelled due to the weekend storm.
With U.S. Hwy. 180 closed both east and west of Lamesa due to flooding – and even more rain expected – the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is urging everyone to be caution whenever encountering water over roadways.
City officials are cautioning people to stay out of the flood waters at the Boys and Girls Club Lake due to contamination from a wastewater lift station at that location.
The noise from Saturday evening’s storm was so loud that Sam and Joy Adams didn’t realize exactly what had happened to their house until it was all over.
The recent storm impacted Medical Arts Hospital’s (MAH) communications, but it didn’t result in any reported injuries or fatalities.
It was almost a re-run from what happened in February, but instead of ice and snow, it was a storm that uprooted trees, tore off roofs, took out electrical power lines and damaged windows with hail.
Several churches are working to feed, clothe and shelter local residents and out-of-towners impacted by the weekend storm.
