What the National Weather Service wrote

A microburst knocked down and split trees south and southwest of Tolar. A barn and storage container were also damaged.

The wider storm

An upper trough draped across the central and eastern U.S. and a stalled front over Central Texas combined to generated scattered showers and thunderstorms July 21 through July 23. Most of the storms remained sub-severe, but a few generated heavy rain and flash flooding in some locations, and one storm produced a damaging microburst in Hood County on the 21st.

Began near Hill City (32.3593, -97.8693).
