The wider storm

A mid-level trough moved through the area as associated low pressure passed to our north and west. The low pressure system dragged a cold front through our area, which sparked and maintained a line of severe thunderstorms to southeastern NY.

Began near Cedar Grove (40.8594, -74.2406).
