| Episode Narrative | A surface low pressure center moved eastward from central Illinois in the morning to Ohio during the afternoon. A trailing cold front that bore characteristics of a dry line moved east-southeast across the Ohio Valley during the late afternoon. Along and east of the front, a few bands of thunderstorms intensified during the afternoon. A few of these storms produced marginally severe hail and damaging winds. Winds behind the front were strong and gusty, with numerous gusts from 40 to 49 mph in northwest Kentucky. A wind gust to 48 mph was measured at the Kentucky mesonet site in Union County. |
| Event Narrative | Two uprooted trees were down across one lane of Highway 107 at the 22-mile marker. Both trees were about eight inches in diameter. |
