Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA broken squall line oriented from north to south moved slowly eastward across southwest Indiana. Individual storm cells within the line raced north-northeast at 50 to 65 mph. Storm development was fostered by modest solar heating as surface dew points climbed into the mid and upper 60's. Low level confluence ahead of a slow-moving surface low over southern Missouri aided the intensification of the squall line. Strengthening wind fields associated with an upper level trough approaching from the southern Plains contributed to isolated tornadoes with the longer-lived storms. Strong low-level winds, around 50 knots at 1 kilometer above the ground, enhanced the risk of mesovortices and isolated tornadoes within the squall line despite a dearth of instability.
