The wider storm

A weak midlevel low over eastern Texas and multiple mesoscale convective vortices maintained widespread convection along the central Gulf Coast on May 25th. Deep moisture and sufficient instability supported a few severe thunderstorms. Stronger offshore storms produced severe marine wind gusts across portions of the local marine areas.

Began near Kikt - Mississippi Canyon 474 (28.5200, -88.2900).
