Similar to the Sabinal storm, the damage at D'Hanis was caused by a combination of a tornado and downburst winds. Both in this case were stronger than at Sabinal. Again, the downburst struck first, causing widespread damage to tree limbs, destroying roofs of homes and businesses, knocking down trees and pushing over numerous power lines. The wind gusts were estimated at 80 miles an hour. This wind damage path was rectangular-shaped, stretching from 6 miles northwest of D'Hanis to 4 miles southeast of D'Hanis. The width of the area was approximately 2 miles.
