Event narrative

The West Texas Mesonet station at Persimmon Gap measured a 58 mph wind gust.

Wider weather episode

A stationary boundary (and associated surface convergence), coupled with upslope flow, led to the development of severe thunderstorms during the afternoon of June 10th as a shortwave approached Southeast New Mexico and West Texas. Initial isolated to scattered storms tended to produce large hail and damaging winds. Upscale growth occurred during the evening/overnight hours, and the primary threat shifted to damaging winds (similar to what happened during the evening of June 9th).
