| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Thunderstorms developed out ahead of a shortwave trough tracking across Wyoming during the afternoon hours of the 17th. A weak differential heating boundary located in the vicinity of the Kansas/Nebraska border also served as a focus for convective development. Scattered reports of non-severe hail and thunderstorm winds gusts filtered in, along with one report of severe hail and one severe damaging wind gust. The most damaging report received though, was due to lightning. One woman in Topeka died several days after being struck by lightning shortly after 4pm on the 17th. A man was injured when a building next to his was struck by lightning, and the bolt traveled through a wire and into the lamp he had been holding. |
