Flash Flood — Hunt, TX

Dec 12, 2015

Two rounds of heavy rainfall affected the North and Central Texas region as an upper level low approached from the west. The first round affected locations east of Interstate 35 resulting in flooding of mainly roads and along creeks and streams. Overnight, a squall line moved through the region producing some instances of damaging wind, but most of the estimated wind speeds were below severe criteria. A large area of rain lingered behind the squall line resulting in more flooding across counties
