The wider storm

An upper level disturbance was moving over northern Mexico, and a dryline was set up from southeast New Mexico to the Big Bend area. Very unstable air was east of the dryline and lead to storms developing during the time of peak heating. Some of these storms became severe with large hail and strong winds due to the large amount of instability.

Began near Dryden (30.0444, -102.1149).
