Episode Narrative Thunderstorms developed along an outflow boundary in a very moist airmass. Storms were fed by strong low level winds. In addition to aiding buoyancy, these winds also contributed to significant low level wind shear. Some storms produced weak tornadoes and locally heavy rain that led to flash flooding.
Event Narrative A National Weather Service damage survey concluded that a small EF0 tornado formed and dissipated quickly the morning of October 26, near the intersection of FM 306 and Purgatory Rd. in Comal County. A few residences along FM 306 near that intersection sustained minor damage mainly to fences and trees. No other damage was observed in the area. Maximum winds were estimated at 70 mph with a path length just over one quarter mile.
