The wider storm

The combination of a stationary front and an upper level storm system to the west, resulted in a few rounds of severe thunderstorms on the afternoon and evening of April 3rd. Also, moderate to strong instability and strong vertical wind shear helped with the severity of the storms. The severe storms produced very large hail and damaging winds across the Big Country and Concho Valley.

Began near Rotan (32.8600, -100.5500).
