| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Two fast-moving lines of strong to severe storms moved east across western Kentucky, accompanied by strong winds, isolated large hail, and torrential rainfall. A few bowing segments along the lines produced damaging winds. Conditions were favorable for severe storms. A negatively-tilted mid-level trough from the central high Plains to the Arklatex ejected northeast through the middle Mississippi Valley. At the surface, an area of low pressure over northeast Kansas moved to central Wisconsin. A trailing cold front surged eastward through the Mid-Mississippi and Lower Ohio Valleys. The storms were fed by a broadening and strengthening southwesterly low-level jet, which moistened and destabilized the atmosphere ahead of the storms. Some places received about 1.5 inches of rain within 45 minutes. The presence of strong winds aloft enhanced the risk of wind damage. |
