Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThe overall setup for convective weather, especially anything strong to severe, was poor across the area. No strong synoptic systems were in the neighborhood, and supporting severe weather parameters such as effective shear and extreme CAPE were negligible. While no severe weather was reported or experienced, a number of funnel clouds were reported within an environment of low lifted condensation levels (500-750 m), localized helicity (outflows), and moderate SBCAPE (1000-2000 J/kg). Additionally, with precipitable water values in excess of 1.5 to 1.8 inches, localized heavy rainfall was experienced.
