Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn upper level low pressure system moving across southern Texas aided in the development of a slow-moving line of thunderstorms that produced heavy rains across Cameron County. Most affected were the communities of Brownsville, Rancho Viejo, Los Fresnos and Rio Hondo. These communities experienced anywhere from 4-8 inches of rain in a 2-3 hour period of time. At the Brownsville-South Padre Island International Airport, 3 of the 4.79 inches of rain that fell, occurred in only 30-35 minutes. |The intense rainfall in such a short period of time resulted in widespread flash flooding of roadways and numerous road closures, as drainages were overwhelmed by the runoff. Hundreds of cars were left stranded in the flood waters, particularly in Brownsville. Numerous intersections in Brownsville and Los Fresnos had standing water 2-4 feet deep.
