Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA late season cold front, combined with excellent upper level dynamics, collided with increasing deep layer moisture to produce a prolonged period of locally heavy rains, concentrated across populated areas of Cameron County, during the late afternoon and into the overnight of April 27th.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeTorrential thunderstorm rains fell generally between 430 and 7 PM across much of the Brownsville area, then were followed by steadier, locally heavy rains during the mid evening. Another round of lighter rains developed overnight. Storm totals ranged from 3 to 5 inches across the area, with the highest totals along a line from Rancho Viejo through Brownsville Airport, extending southeast to the Sabal Palm Audubon Center near the Rio Grande. Minor nuisance flooding was reported in poor drainage areas during the initial torrential rains, but, overall, the rain was welcome relief from drought conditions which had been dominant through most of the spring.
