COTexas town deploys snow plows after 50-degree temperature swing and 2 feet of hailAs severe weather continued Thursday through the Great Plains, residents of a southwest Texas town reported a dramatic temperature drop on Wednesday and hail so deep they had to deploy snow plows to clear the streets. The temperature in Marathon, Texas, fell more than 50 degrees on Wednesday afternoon, plummeting from around 105 degrees to the mid-50s in about an hour. Brad Wilson, chief of the Marathon Fire Department, said it was as if conditions turned from summer to winter in an hour. "There was about two feet of hail on our main street right in the center of town. It looked like snow," Wilson said. "We went out there with a tape measure last night before the road crews came and plowed the roads."#SevereWeather #GreatPlains #TexasWeather #TemperatureDrop #HailStorm #MarathonTX #WeatherPhenomenon #SnowPlows #ClimateChange #ExtremeWeather #FireDepartment #ABCN ews #WeatherAlert
