What the National Weather Service wrote

Heavy rain resulted in flash flooding in Terrell County. There was several feet of floodwater in Sanderson Canyon which resulted in evacuations. The cost of damage is a very rough estimate.

The wider storm

West Texas was on the western edge of an upper trough. Abundant moisture and lift were across the area. These conditions allowed for more rain to develop and move over already saturated soils which resulted in flash flooding.

Began near Sanderson (30.1500, -102.4167).
