| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A cold front moved through the region during the late afternoon and evening. This cold front, combined with moist and unstable conditions, triggered widespread showers and storms across the region. The strongest of these storms downed trees and powerlines, as well as producing very large hail. Intense lightning caused fires and several personal injuries. Torrential rainfall flooded a few areas, and was also responsible for sweeping away a young boy. Damage estimates by print media were in the hundreds of thousands, possibly more. |
