sweetapricity/bridgedeck-noaa huggingface dataset:
A strong upper level trough of low pressure extending from the Intermountain West into the Four Corners Region energized the southwest flow aloft across the Southern Plains during much of the day on May 8th, with a strong low level jet sustaining a mesoscale convective complex (MCS) across much of Oklahoma into Northcentral Texas south into the Texas Hill Country. While these storms gradually weakened after daybreak as a cold pool from these storms propagated southeast into the region, additional upper level disturbances ahead of this trough interacted with ample moisture and instability near this cold pool to intensify these showers and thunderstorms, some of which became severe with damaging winds as they moved across portions of East Texas, Southwest Arkansas, and North Louisiana. Locally heavy rainfall from the stronger storms within a short period of time also resulted in localized flash flooding across portions of Southwest Arkansas.
