On May 21st, thunderstorms developed along a combination of a dryline and cold front across the southwestern portions of the region. These storms merged into an eastward moving complex of storms that produced strong winds across some of our Central Texas counties. On May 24th, numerous showers and storms affected the area due primarily to a series of boundaries and shortwaves. A complex of storms moved across parts of Central Texas but was weakening, and only one report of severe criteria winds was reported.
