Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeStrongly forced ascent associated with an upper level trough and surface cold front produced a fast-moving line of low-topped thunderstorms along the spine of the Appalachians during the afternoon. As the front crossed the Alleghenies during the late afternoon and interacted with greater instability east of the mountains, more vigorous storm development was observed with intense bowing/squall line segments producing widespread thunderstorm wind damage as they accelerated eastward through the central mountains into the ridge and valley region. Multiple reports of wind damage were verified with an isolated spin-up/gustnado confirmed in southern Clearfield County. ||To the south and east of the advancing cold front, an enhanced but focused tornado threat evolved near a developing frontal wave and attendant warm front/triple point. |As the warm front lifted northward from the Baltimore/Washington D.C. area into south-central and southeastern Pennsylvania, the convective environment become very favorable for tornadoes as very strong low level wind shear overspread the area. Several rotating storm signatures were observed via radar with two weak (EF0) tornadoes confirmed in Bedford and York Counties.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeSpotter reported a funnel cloud just north of Shrewsbury. This storm went onto produce an EF0 tornado near Winterstown.
