Event narrative (NOAA)
Outflow from thunderstorms to the east produced wind gusts in excess of 45 MPH on Lake Lewisville. Two men drowned in separate incidents shortly after the strong winds affected the lake. One died after his small inflatable boat overturned from the gusty winds. The other died after he was overcome on his paddle board by choppy waters.
