| episodeNarrative | A round of strong to severe thunderstorms impacted western Kentucky during the late night and early morning hours of Jan. 11-12. The storms produced some gusty winds and even a tornado just after they crossed the Mississippi River into extreme southern Illinois and extreme west Kentucky. The main hazard then transitioned to large hail across much of western Kentucky. The storms were organized into clusters and occasionally line segments. The storms occurred along a warm front as it tracked northward across western Kentucky into the lower Ohio Valley. Steep lapse rates aloft and strong deep-layer wind shear were supportive of elevated hailers. An isolated tornado threat existed due to modest instability as boundary layer dew points rose into the upper 50's to near 60 degrees. |
