Episode Narrative Numerous strong to severe thunderstorms occurred in the warm sector of a low pressure system over central Missouri. The air mass in the warm sector was very unstable, with afternoon mixed-layer cape values in the 2500 to 4000 j/kg range. A 65 to 75 knot mid level jet was located across Arkansas, with the nose of the jet moving into western Kentucky. This feature enhanced the lift and strong deep-layer shear already in place, creating an environment very favorable for supercells and tornadoes. A 40 to 55 knot low level jet across eastern Arkansas moved into western Kentucky during the evening, resulting in isolated tornadoes and widespread damaging winds.
Event Narrative A major downburst with winds up to 100 mph occurred. Part of the roof was torn off a house, including the decking. The front porch was blown off the house. A hog barn was unroofed, and a grain bin was blown over. A pole barn and a cattle barn were destroyed. At least a dozen trees were snapped or uprooted.
