An MCS (which originated in southwestern Oklahoma and northern Texas) moved into the northern Permian Basin during the early morning hours of the 9th. Though the system was weakening as it moved into the Permian Basin, it was able to produce damaging winds in Snyder. Flash flooding and water rescues were also reported in Odessa due to heavy rain associated with the decaying MCS.
