| Episode Narrative |
An approaching cold front along with strong surface heating over the mountains allowed for the development of thunderstorms across the Billings Forecast Area. The combination of 40-50kt largely unidirectional west/southwest layer wind profiles and steep low to mid level lapse rates resulted in bowing segments and embedded supercells that produced high winds and large hail. |
