Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThe Texas Panhandle was firmly locked in northwest flow aloft on the 7th. This type of weather pattern favors the development of precipitation across the Panhandle as it allows weak shortwave troughs to dive southeastward from the Continental Divide into the Southern Plains. The large scale lift provided by one such shortwave during the afternoon hours of the 7th worked in tandem with weak steering flow during the afternoon and increasing PWAT values during the evening hours to produce localized heavy rain across the Texas Panhandle. Scattered, near stationary, discrete thunderstorms developed over the northern Texas Panhandle due to weak steering flow during the afternoon hours of the 7th. These storms were able to generate moderate rain amounts due to being over the same location for an extended period of time. As the hours progressed into the evening, low level winds transported gulf moisture into the southern Texas Panhandle which fueled, in the form of increased PWAT values, a line of thunderstorms moving south-southeastward across the western half of the Panhandle. While these storms moved quickly across the area, the ample supply of moisture allowed these thunderstorms to efficiently produce heavy rain. All precipitation ended across the Texas Panhandle by 10 PM due to the upper level support for these storms moving into central Texas.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA line of thunderstorms moved across the western Texas Panhandle during the late evening hours of the 7th. This line produced heavy rain across Hutchinson County which caused minor flooding of roads across the northern portion of the county including Highway 207. As the line of thunderstorms moved into the southwestern Texas Panhandle, minor road flooding receded. No swift water rescues or stranded motorist were reported in association with this flooding.
