Low pressure was located well north of the area in Ontario, and another trough of low pressure was swinging southeast from Michigan. Showers and thunderstorms developed during the afternoon and continued through late evening. With increased moisture across the region, some of the thunderstorms not only became severe, but also caused some flash flooding across the area.
