Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn early morning thunderstorm complex rapidly developed over the Lower Ohio Valley ahead of a weak mid-level shortwave trough. The complex evolved into a broad zone of convection along and south of a stationary front that extended from central Missouri through central Illinois. Three-hour rainfall amounts were from one to two inches. The convection was focused along the nose of a low-level jet in a very moist air mass, with precipitable water values in the 2 to 2.25 inch range. Unidirectional wind flow from the surface to 500 mb resulted in little net movement of the convection. Although the best instability resided further south in the warm/moist sector, there was enough buoyancy in place to maintain convection. The front settled southward across western Kentucky by late afternoon, providing a focus for renewed convective complexes.
