The wider storm

A shortwave trough over the Great Lakes interacting with a quasi-stationary boundary over eastern Ohio and western PA spawned severe weather from mid afternoon through late evening. MLCAPE near 2000 J/kg along with a relatively strong, elongated shear profiles led to an environment for strong to severe winds and possible tornadoes.

Began near Elderton (40.6900, -79.3400).
