Read the full account →As the result of a wet winter with precipitation above normal, the soils in Hopkins County remained saturated and low lying areas remained wet. Continuous rainfall on February 4th with accumulations of 1-2 of rain flooded low lying areas, affecting surrounding areas.
Read the full account →An upper level trough was to the west of the region moving eastward. Pacific Hurricane Lorena was over Baja which provided mid and upper level moisture across the area. South to southeast surface winds had provided plentiful low-level moisture.
Read the full account →A dryline draped across west Texas provided a focus for thunderstorm development, as a mid level shortwave trough moved out of northern Mexico and into the region.
Read the full account →A mesoscale convective system moved into South Central Texas from the northwest early in the morning of June 23. Storms produced heavy rain as they weakened with some minor flooding. An outflow boundary from this feature was the focus for convection later in the day.
