The wider storm

Scattered showers and thunderstorms developed during the early afternoon of July 9th across the Coastal Plains and Brush Country. This activity was due to a combination of factors: some atmospheric energy skirting the edge of a ridge in the Gulf, the arrival of the sea breeze, and abundant moisture in the region. A few of these thunderstorms caused isolated instances of marine wind gusts and flash flooding.

Began near Nueces Bay (27.8700, -97.3200).
