| Episode Narrative | Thunderstorms gradually intensified along and ahead of a cold front from Arkansas into western Kentucky. The storms occurred in a moist and strongly sheared environment, resulting in a combination of line segments and supercells which evolved into a quasi-linear convective system. There were isolated tornadoes, along with a couple small swaths of damaging winds. |
| Event Narrative | A garage type building formerly used as a car wash was unroofed, and a wall partially collapsed. An unoccupied trailer was blown over. |
