Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThunderstorms over eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania weakened during the morning hours of the 5th. However, a strong outflow boundary from this convection pushed south. By late morning, the heating of the unstable air combined with the outflow boundary to trigger additional storms that pushed south across West Virginia, reaching Virginia by mid afternoon.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThe Kanawha Metro 911 building was struck by lightning after most of the rain had already moved south. Phone lines, radios, and computers were destroyed.
