What the National Weather Service wrote

The wider storm

Broad southwest atmospheric flow with embedded upper level disturbances combined with a stationary front over the Texas Gulf waters to produce two days of strong thunderstorm clusters, mostly east of the 20 nautical mile line (roughly east of 97 degrees west longitude). A few gale force gusts occurred at the NOAA Buoy (42020) approximately 45 miles northeast of Port Mansfield on the 10th.

Began near S Baffin Bay (26.9680, -96.6930).
