The wider storm

An upper level trough moved across Texas and combined with deep low moisture to produce heavy rain on consecutive days that produced flash flooding. The city of San Antonio was hit the hardest with portions of the city seeing significant flash flooding, flooded homes, and even a few fatalities. In addition, a few small tornadoes were reported.
