Heavy rain during the evening of March 9 caused Santa Clara Creek to flood a low water crossing on the I-10 access road near exit 599. A car was swept off the road and a woman passenger was killed.

The wider storm

An upper level trough moved over Texas and interacted with a very moist boundary layer to produce isolated thunderstorms. Some of these storms produced locally heavy rain that led to flash flooding.
