Experts speak on how a snowstorm can affect Lubbock crops


The weather in Lubbock has been very unstable for the past few weeks. On Jan. 10, after months of drought, a short-lived, high-density snowstorm occurred, catching many Lubbock residents off guard. There was fear that local crops could be heavily damaged due to this unplanned weather event.
Glen Ritchie, chair of Texas Tech's Department of Plant and Soil Science, said that contrary to the fear, most major crops of Lubbock, like cotton or sorghum, will somewhat benefit from the snowstorm after a considerable period of drought.
“It has some substantial benefits, but because it has been so dry, the one storm that we got is not going to be enough to make completely certain that we’ll be able to have a good planting season," Ritchie said. “Regardless, it is certainly going to help.”
