What the National Weather Service wrote

An NWS survey team observed a home on Sundown Trail with a portion of its roof removed. This house was located on the western top of a high ridge, and the portion of the roof removed was exposed to the west. When overlaying radar data, the most likely cause of this damage was the roof being completely exposed to the surging rear-flank downdraft at a significantly higher elevation than surrounding homes that were not damaged. These straight-line winds were estimated to be near 100 mph.

The wider storm

An upper-level shortwave trough and Pacific cold front moved into an unusually moist airmass over South-Central Texas. These features combined to generate thunderstorms some of which produced a tornado, damaging wind gusts, and large hail.

Began near Canyon Res (29.9197, -98.1923).
