Thunderstorms began to develop during the afternoon of June 3rd across parts of East and Northeast Texas, extending eastward into portions of Northwest Louisiana. Strong daytime heating and dew points in the middle 60s to lower 70s allowed for modest air mass destabilization, with as much as 1500-2000 J/kg of instability from East Texas into much of neighboring Northwest Louisiana. Deep layer flow was weak, resulting in slow moving storms and very little shear in the background environment. Give
