The wider storm

The environment during the afternoon of April 30th was characterized by increased instability and increasing deep layer shear. This resulted in the development of discrete supercells ahead of a mesoscale convective complex moving northeast from Oklahoma. One particularly robust and long-lived supercell dropped up to 2 inch hail in Clinton County before producing 2 tornadoes in Fayette County.

Began near Trenton (38.6000, -89.6700).
