Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn early season cold front moved unusally far south for mid September, and interacted with abundant tropical moisture, leading to torrential rain producing thunderstorms ahead of the front on September 14th, and another band of showers and a few thunderstorms behind the front on the 15th, aided by interaction with a moderately strong mid level jet streak. The heavy rains favored Starr and Zapata Counties on the 14th, and a bit farther east into Hidalgo and Cameron Counties during the morning of the 15th.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeTorrential rains from two intense thunderstorms dropped an estimated 4 or more inches in north central Zapata County, generally in rural areas along and north of State Highway 16, bounded by Bustamente and Escobas on the east. As of this writing, no reports of flooding have been received.
