Showers Bring Helpful Rain Across Vernon County
Local showers, heaviest over Vernon, doused most of Wilbarger County on Monday afternoon. Rain reached nearly an inch in places, with hail near Odell and heavy showers in White City north of Tolbert. Downs Fargo Hinds and areas north of Vernon had rain, while Oklainton and Harrold saw light showers. The downpour aided row crops and gardens, and growers expect better wheat threshing due to the moisture.
