| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An east to west front was over the upper Ohio Valley from near the northern West Virginia border into the Midwest. The axis of a mid to upper level disturbance was over Illinois. Large clusters of thunderstorms moved east across Kentucky during the afternoon, reaching into southern West Virginia during the night. Rains of 0.75 to 1.5 inches were common overnight. However, the dam at R.D. Bailey on the Guyandotte River did measure 1.8 inches of rain. On the leading edge of the last large cluster of showers and thunderstorms, lightning caused damage in Raleigh County. |
