Persistent high pressure in the mid and upper levels of the atmosphere continued to maintain unusually dry conditions for mid to late July through the depth of the atmosphere across all of Deep South Texas.  The dry air, combined with record high temperatures and gusty surface winds above 30 mph driven by the difference between pressures associated with the Sierra Madre lee side heat trough and high pressure in the western Gulf, and humidity falling below 20 percent each afternoon,  aided the ability of wild fires to quickly spread and threaten homes and businesses in Starr and Hidalgo County.
