Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA slow-moving frontal boundary interacted with a highly unstable and moderately sheared environment to trigger strong to severe thunderstorms across parts of central Illinois from the late afternoon of August 16th into the early morning hours of August 17th. A tornado touched down near Smithfield in Fulton County. Other cells produced sporadic wind damage and hail as large as golf balls. Excessive rainfall rates created localized flash flooding in Edinburg in Christian County.
