Where the report was made, with tornadoes recorded within 15 miles over the years.

The wider storm

Mid-level lift, moisture, and instability were over the area. Outflow boundaries from storms the previous day were still over the area and helped to create a source of low-level lift. These factors, along with low-level moisture and instability, helped to create an environment conducive for severe thunderstorms across the Davis Mountains.

Began near Marfa (30.3200, -104.0200).
