The wider storm

A positively tilted shortwave trough lifting out of the Four Corners and a stalled cold front over the Permian Basin aided in afternoon thunderstorm development. Numerous thunderstorms formed along and north of the cold front and became an intense squall line with damaging winds.

Began near Texon (31.3600, -101.7700).
