Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeDuring the early morning hours on July 19th, a convective system moved southeast across southern Ohio and eastern Kentucky. This left behind an outflow boundary that extended from near Madison, Indiana southeast through the Kentucky Bluegrass. A couple of strong storms developed by mid afternoon along this boundary and brought isolated wind damage to the Bluegrass Region. Later that afternoon, scattered severe storms developed under highly unstable conditions across southern Indiana, aided by the approach of a southward moving upper level disturbance. As these storms crossed the Ohio River, they grew upscale into several bowing segments. By evening, two of these segments merged south of Louisville into a squall line that brought widespread damaging winds to much of central Kentucky. Most locations experienced a strong gust front with at least 45 mph winds. Several Kentucky mesonet sites measured winds in excess of 58 mph.
