The wider storm

The combination of increasing surface heating, elevated moisture, and increasing atmospheric life from an approaching mid level disturbance induced increasing storm development. Even after the sun set, storms were able to continue developing with a couple reaching severe limits in coastal waters south of Louisiana.

Began near Mississippi Canyon - Nakika (kikt) (28.3500, -88.2700).
