The wider storm

A dynamic shortwave trough moving into the central Plains led to the development of a deepening closed low over Nebraska and Kansas during the late evening of March 18, 2025, continuing into the early morning hours of March 19. This amplifying system enhanced a strong low-level jet across the central and southern Plains, driving significant moisture transport into eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. A plume of 500'700 J/kg of MUCAPE supported the initiation of showers and thunderstorms, some of which produced severe hail.

Began near Nashville (41.4200, -96.0600).
