| May 2016 | Tornado (EF2) | Garden City | $107,000 | A thunderstorm moved across Glasscock County and produced a tornado near Garden City. This tornado developed around 8:56 pm CDT, just over 1.5 miles north northwest of Garden City. This tornado produced a combination of EF-1 and EF-2 damage at two residences. A single-wide manufactured home at Home #1 was rolled and destroyed. This was indicative of damage produced by a tornado of EF-2 intensity. As the tornado moved southwestward and impacted Home #2, a combination of EF-1 and EF-2 damage was noted. Tree damage was indicative of EF-1, while the metal barn appears to have sustained lower-end EF-2 damage. It is noted however that the barn construction made it more susceptible to wind entering the structure, which could have resulted in damage at a lower wind threshold. Wind speeds are estimated at 100-115 mph with this damage.||As the tornado moved southwestward, it was the opinion of the assessment team that the tornado intensified. At approximately 9:01 pm CDT, the tornado knocked over a 320 type pump jack west of County Road 417. With this slightly smaller pump jack type, it was felt that winds in the 120-135 mph range could potentially produce this damage. Thus, the tornado was rated as being a high-end EF-2 intensity. Oil field workers noted that there was damage over open fields farther to the southwest. Using radar estimates, the team concluded that this tornado dissipated at 9:02 pm CDT just short of reaching Highway 158, 1.5 miles west of Garden City. The total path length for tornado #7 was 1.9 miles with its greatest width estimated at 150 yards. The cost of damage is a very rough estimate. |

| May 2022 | Thunderstorm Wind | Garden City | $90,000 | A thunderstorm produced wind damage in Garden City as well as across portions of Glasscock County. This damage included multiple downed power poles, uprooted trees, shingles and roof damage, and numerous cases of wind-driven hail damage. Given that damage was all found oriented in a similar direction across the surveyed area, the damage was determined to be caused by strong downdraft winds. The cost of damage is a very rough estimate. |
| May 2022 | Tornado (EF2) | Garden City | $83,000 | A thunderstorm produced a tornado near State Highway 158 in Glasscock County. This tornado crossed State Highway 158 and lasted about fifteen minutes before dissipating after crossing County Road 130. Power poles were snapped and completely blown over in the opposite direction along Highway 158. A narrow swath of power poles were snapped along County Road 110 and a lone power pole was snapped off County Road 130. Video evidence from Highway 158 shows this tornado was multi-vortex with three to four ground circulations evident. The tornado likely touched down multiple times along the path. The path length and location are estimated by radar and power pole damage locations. The path width is unknown. The cost of damage is a very rough estimate. |
| May 2016 | Tornado (EF3) | Garden City | $45,000 | A thunderstorm moved across Glasscock County and produced a tornado near Garden City. This tornado developed just west of Ranch Road 33, four miles north northwest of Garden City around 8:42 pm CDT. The tornado moved southward, knocking over a 640 type pump jack located approximately two and a quarter miles north of Garden City. This type of occurrence is associated with wind speeds in the 140-160 mph range. Thus, the tornado has been rated as briefly reaching EF-3 intensity. Broken tree limbs were observed by the assessment team two miles north of Garden City, just west of Ranch Road 33. This damage indicator suggested the tornado had weakened to EF-1 intensity at that point. This weakening trend coincided with the tornado taking a more southeast track as it crossed Ranch Road 33. The tornado dissipated at 8:54 pm CDT, two miles north of Garden City. In total, the tornado traveled a 3.7 mile path and had an estimated width of 200 yards. The cost of damage is a very rough estimate. |
