Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA deepening area of low pressure tracked along the I-72 corridor during the evening of April 19th. A very sharp temperature gradient existed across central Illinois at the time, with readings ranging from the middle 40s north of the low track to around 80 degrees to the south. Severe thunderstorms developed along this strong frontal boundary in advance of the approaching low, producing widespread wind damage and large hail. In addition, 6 tornadoes touched down from Christian County east-northeast into Vermilion and Edgar counties.
