Episode Narrative A strong low pressure system west of the Ohio Valley approached during peak heating on May 25th. This resulted in the development of widespread severe thunderstorms with large hail and damaging winds during the afternoon and evening hours. Later in the evening, a quasi-linear convective system swept west to east across the area. The result was straight line wind damage and a few tornadoes.
Event Narrative Motorists were stranded in high water due to flash flooding caused by heavy rainfall. A road was closed due to a culvert washout.
