A strong and persistent upper-level ridge across the Four Corners Region retrograded slightly westward, allowing an upper-level trough to shift southward from the Plains and Ozarks. The trough helped to drive a weak frontal boundary in the region where ample instability was in place as daytime maximum temperatures averaged between 100-105 degrees on July 13th. Convection began to form by mid to late afternoon with several thunderstorms quickly becoming severe in the very unstable conditions. The high-based thunderstorms presented a primary damaging wind threat, which resulted in numerous damage reports through the afternoon and evening hours on the 13th. Some of the severe thunderstorms also produced hail of various sizes, including a few reports of large hail. These storms continued through the early morning hours of the 14th before diminishing. Additional isolated severe thunderstorms developed during the afternoon of the 14th over Eastern Smith County, producing damaging winds that tore a portion of the roof off of the Chapel Hill High School cafeteria.
