event_narrativeAn arctic cold front moved slowly across the northwestern half of North Texas on the 4th as an upper level disturbance rotated into the Southern Plains. Abundant gulf moisture was drawn into the region ahead of the disturbance and over the front. Widespread rain and thunderstorms developed across the area. One to two inches of rain fell across the eastern two-thirds of northern Texas with more than four inches occurring in a 40 mile wide band from the DFW Metroplex to Bonham. Another four inch band of rain fell from Temple to Fairfield. The soil was already saturated due to the unusually wet December that much of Texas experienced and this heavy rain resulted in excessive runoff and flash flooding in many places. Roads were flooded and vehicles became stranded in the rising waters. A young boy drown in a fast-moving flood current. The strongest storms also produced dime to nickel size hail and a short-lived tornado.
