Severe thunderstorm pummels Santa Teresa, parts of West El Paso and Upper Valley
El Paso, Texas -- A severe thunderstorm late Tuesday night dropped golfball-sized hail over parts of the Borderland, causing some damage to property.
In Santa Teresa, the streets were blanketed by hail as residents peeked cautiously from their homes.
At least one resident reported a broken skylight.
