The wider storm

A weak surface trough sagged south of I-64 during the evening hours of June 26th, providing a focus for showers and storms to fire late in the day. This activity coalesced into a loosely organized line toward sunset. Portions of the line produced winds strong enough to produce isolated wind damage reports in Morgan County before settling further southeast and dissipating overnight.

Began near White Oak (37.8500, -83.2000).
