Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeSolidly within southwest upper level flow, the area found itself within an active period with multiple rounds of thunderstorms. Morning convection amounted to little more than moderate showers and thunderstorms, giving way to a short break before a potent short wave, increased low level jet, and increased theta-e advection initiated another round of strong to severe thunderstorms. Even with morning convection and lingering cloud cover, MUCAPE values approached the 2000-3000 J/kg range by the early to mid evening hours, along with marginally supportive effective bulk shear (about 30 kts), and precipitable water values in excess of 1.8 inches. As convection strolled northeast, a few strong to severe cores went up, providing periods of heavy rainfall and damaging winds.
