The wider storm

A stalled frontal boundary draped across the local area began to surge northward as cyclogenesis began along the southwest LA coastline. Ample moisture being lifted by this warm front resulted in numerous shower and thunderstorm development. Discrete storms began to congeal into a line of storms which resulted in flash flooding in Washington Parish.

Began near Mt Hermon (30.9500, -90.2900).
