Wider weather episode

Synoptic lift from an upper-level trough interacted with a favorable plume of moisture and instability over West Texas, leading to the development of strong to severe storms, especially along a nearby boundary over the northern Permian Basin. Storms were initially weak as they moved out of New Mexico, but intensified quickly over the Permian Basin that evening. Most activity moved out of the area overnight.
