The wider storm
A line of strong to severe thunderstorms developed over Corpus Christi area from a weak shortwave trough and shifted southward into Deep South Texas. As the storms ran into very unstable air across the Rio Grande Valley, they formed into a cluster and become locally severe. Several microbursts and some hail (unknown size) were generated from the cluster, including a several-mile track between North Alamo and Donna/Weslaco, on June 12th, 2025.
The microburst resulted in isolated to scattered structural damage to roofs, traffic lights, fences, trailers, power poles, as well as trees. There were no known injuries. Two to potentially three inches of rain in the McAllen metropolitan area resulted in urban flooding for around 2 hours there.
Began near Donna (26.1200, -98.0500).
