The wider storm

On the morning of March 13th, a west to east oriented cold front was pushing south near the Ohio River, but it stalled before pushing back north. This left central Kentucky in the warm sector with warm moist air moving in from the south. As the system's north to south oriented cold front moved east through the Lower Ohio Valley on the 15th, several storms produced widespread hail across north central Kentucky. Some of these storms also produced localized damaging winds and flooding by the 16th as the system's second reinforcing cold front pushed east through the area.

Began near Midway (37.9500, -86.2200).
