Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThunderstorms developed over western Fresno County during the evening of June 4th, and rapidly grew in intensity. One severe thunderstorm had a reflectivity of 73 dBz, and a VIL (vertically integrated liquid) of 43 g/kg. Hail up to an inch in diameter fell near the town of Helm, and outflow winds were estimated at around 60 mph.||The low finally moved onshore on the 5th, and lifted northeast into northern Nevada that evening. An upper-level trough remained over California, with an unseasonably cold airmass aloft. Upper-level impulses moving through the trough continued the threat of afternoon and evening mountain convection, with isolated light showers drifting over the San Joaquin Valley at times. Temperatures fell to some 10-15 degrees below normal, and stayed well below normal for the next week.||The Grouse wildfire that was sparked by lightning on May 30th continued through the month of June. The ignition time was 1400 PST on May 30th, the location was 3 miles southwest of Yosemite Valley in Mariposa County. The size of the fire was 3047 acres. The cost to containment was $2.9 million. The containment date was July 13th.
