An upper level disturbance kicked off multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms along a stationary front which stretched across North Texas. A few severe storms occurred during the evening of Saturday August 12th, then training thunderstorms with heavy rain led to flash flooding in many locations between the Red River and the Interstate 20 corridor during the morning of the 13th.
