Widespread severe thunderstorms developed on the afternoon of the tenth as a weak upper level disturbance ejected overhead northward out of Mexico. The initial activity rapidly developed near the dryline, which was located near the Texas/New Mexico line, late Tuesday afternoon. Aided by strong instability, several of the storms quickly became severe mostly producing severe thunderstorm winds. The thunderstorms gradually evolved into a solid line and tracked eastward across much of the South Plains, Rolling Plains and southern Texas Panhandle through the mid-late evening hours continually producing severe winds. Lastly, a wake low developed in the departing convection which generated a high wind gust of 62 mph near McAdoo measured by the Texas Tech University West Texas mesonet.
