Along the front, a broken line of multicell thunderstorms and isolated supercell thunderstorms developed and persisted generally eastward in NW PA. These storms produced sporadic straight-line convective wind damage and severe hail amidst moderate to strong effective bulk shear, weak to moderate MUCAPE, and moderate DCAPE in the warm and relatively-moist sector.
