On the afternoon of June 1st, an outflow boundary from morning thunderstorms, combined with a strong shortwave trough moving south from the Southern Plains into North Texas, created a focus for thunderstorm development. These storms began near the I-20 corridor and moved south throughout the afternoon, eventually dissipating over Central Texas by evening.

The episode as NWS FWD wrote it up.
On the afternoon of June 1st, an outflow boundary from morning thunderstorms, combined with a strong shortwave trough moving south from the Southern Plains into North Texas, created a focus for thunderstorm development. These storms began near the I-20 corridor and moved south throughout the afternoon, eventually dissipating over Central Texas by evening. The most significant severe weather event associated with this system was large hail, up to 3, in Parker and Tarrant counties.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 1, 4:54 AM CST, 4 hours 1 minute earlier. Its key messages:
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fort Worth TX 554 AM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025 ...New Aviation... .KEY MESSAGES... - Storm chances return this morning across North Texas and continue into the afternoon and evening along and south of the I-20 corridor. A few storms could be severe with damaging winds and large hail. - Daily storm chances are expected each day this week, with the highest chances across North Texas. Some severe storms and flooding will be possible during this time, most likely on Tuesday and Wednesday. && .SHORT TERM... /Issued 107 AM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025/ /Today through Tonight/ All is quiet early this morning across North and Central Texas with nothing on radar, mostly clear skies, and temperatures/dewpoints in the 60s/70s. However, thunderstorms have developed across northern Oklahoma in association with a stout upper level shortwave moving southward through the Plains. These storms are expected to move across the Red River around 12Z or so this morning, then continue southward through North Texas before dissipating around midday. Although instability will be on the low side with MUCAPE less than 1000 J/Kg per forecast soundings, a storm or two could have damaging winds or large hail. In the wake of the morning activity, additional widely scattered storms are anticipated this afternoon south of I-20 as the shortwave trough axis shifts across the region. With daytime heating increasing temperatures to the upper 80s/low 90s and dewpoints rising into the upper 60s/low 70s, this will boost MLCAPE up to 3000 J/Kg. Therefore any afternoon storms will have a better potential for producing damaging winds and large hail across Central Texas before activity shifts south of the area by evening. 0-3km SRH will also be on the higher side up to 200 m2/s2 per forecast soundings, so an isolated tornado is possible albeit unlikely. Overnight Sunday night, some additional showers and a storm or two may pop up along a moisture axis across our eastern half per CAMs. Although nothing severe is anticipated with this activity, some locally heavy downpours are possible. Have added a slight chance pop from the Metroplex southeastward to account for this potential. Shamburger && .LONG TERM... /Issued 335 AM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025/ /Monday Onward/ This upcoming week will start off with a mid-level ridge over top the region, but unfortunately this will not last long. A cut-off low over Baja California will be influenced by a digging western CONUS trough, eventually deamplifying into an open wave and ejecting northeast out ahead of the main trough on Monday. As it does, the ridge overtop the region will be shunted eastward, opening the way for a week of unsettled weather. Over Monday afternoon, the open shortwave will make its way across the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles. Lift from this disturbance will promote scattered convection along the dryline out in far West Texas/New Mexico. These storms will move east over the evening hours, eventually spreading into North and Central Texas late Monday night through Tuesday morning. Meanwhile, the attendant cold front to our north will advance southward, with additional storms developing along the boundary as it does. This front is progged to cross the Red River and stall in North Texas over midweek, providing an area of increased surface convergence and ascent. There is still some uncertainty on just how far south the front will make it before it stalls, with a 75% of ensemble members keeping the front closer to the Big Country and Red River Valley (25% of members push the front further south). More widespread showers and storms will impact portions of North and Central Texas mainly Tuesday night through Wednesday morning, and again Wednesday night through Thursday morning as upper level disturbances spread increased ascent overtop the two surface boundaries. Enough instability and shear will be present to promote strong to severe storms capable of large hail and damaging winds both nights, alongside a lower threat for tornadoes. The exact tornado threat remains uncertain at this time, but we will continue to watch this potential. On top of the severe threat, PWATs between 1.5-2" and long, skinny CAPE profiles will promote periods of heavy rain. This could ramp up the flooding threat within North Texas, particularly in areas that will receive multiple rounds of storms. Most likely rainfall totals between Tuesday and Thursday continue to be between 1.5 and 3" across our western North Texas and Red River counties, with isolated higher totals up to around 5" possible in this same area. Elsewhere across North and Central Texas, totals of 0.50-1.5" are likely. The caveat with the above totals are that they are a bit more broad-brushed as high-resolution guidance does not cover this period. Additionally, where the front truly ends up could shift the axis of higher rainfall totals. We will continue to refine and adjust rainfall totals in the coming days as we get a better picture. Mid-level ridging will build across Mexico and southern Texas late this week through next weekend, placing the Southern Plains within westerly flow aloft. Even with this pattern change, multiple disturbances will traverse along the northern periphery of the ridge allowing for continued chances for showers and storms within North and Central Texas each day through this next weekend. The northward shunt of the disturbances will keep best rain chances for our area generally within North Texas, with more isolated chances further into Central Texas. Severe weather will continue to be possible as the region remains in a moist and unstable environment, but exact details pertaining to threats, locations, and timing are uncertain this far out. Make sure to keep updated with the forecast this upcoming week as more details will become available. Prater && .AVIATION... /NEW/ /12Z TAFs/ VFR conditions will continue at airports this TAF period with prevailing southeast winds up to 10 knots. Scattered SHRA/TSRA are expected to pass near/east of the Metroplex airports in the 14-16Z timeframe. However, appears direct TSRA impacts have lessened so removed the TSRA mention from the tempo groups, but will still continue advertising the 2 hour NNE wind shift with gusts up to 25 knots. Another round of VCTS will affect airports late afternoon/early evening with direct TSRA impacts likely at KACT. Shamburger && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
