Convection was widespread over west Texas on the 25th. The initial activity decreased from west to east during the afternoon hours, but not before resulting in very dangerous urban flash flooding across portions of the Permian Basin. Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms erupted again by late afternoon over the mountainous regions of the state. One storm produced large hail near the Big Bend National Park.
