Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA vigorous upper level disturbance crossing from Southwest Texas into the Big Bend Region helped intensify a Gulf Low, or Texas Nor'easter, just south of the mouth of the Rio Grande River late on December 15th and 16th. Moderate to heavy rain developed across the region overnight on the 15th, and continued through the day and evening of the 16th as the system gradually tracked northward along the coast.||Event total rainfall in Hidalgo, Cameron, Willacy, and southern Kenedy County ranged from 3 to 4 1/2 inches, with peak values occurring in the more populated portions of the area including Pharr and McAllen in Hidalgo County, and Brownsville through Harlingen in Cameron County in particular.||The steady rains, falling on increasingly saturated soils, eventually produced pockets of nuisance flooding in typically poor drainage locations across the Lower and Middle Rio Grande Valley from mid morning through early evening on the 16th.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeRain, heavy at times during the daylight hours of the 16th, accumulated an estimated 1 1/2 to 2 inches between 6 AM and 6 PM in along the Highway 77 corridor of Willacy County. High standing water occurred in these areas. Event totals in Willacy County included 3.33 inches in Raymondville, and 2.92 inches in Port Mansfield.
