The wider storm

A warm front was situated across central Virginia and North Carolina, while a stationary front was positioned across Kentucky and West Virginia, which kept an moist airmass over much of the area. Lift across the warm front and increasing instability via diurnal heating through the day resulted in a couple of severe thunderstorms in Surry County.
