What happened

The episode as NWS AMA wrote it up.

A progressive upper level trough moved through the Southern Plains during the evening hours of the 12th. convection developed across the Texas Panhandle in response to this upper trough passage, and the strong upper level winds associated with this trough were able to mix to the surface in the downdraft of these thunderstorms. This caused several severe thunderstorms downbursts. By 6 PM CST, the upper trough progressed far enough east to propagate storms out of the Texas Panhandle.

What forecasters said that day
