The wider storm
A small cluster of thunderstorms developed over southern Illinois and moved across southwest Indiana in the early morning. The storms formed just ahead of a strong, sharp 500mb trough in an area of strong upper divergence associated with a small 120kt 300mb jet to the north over Indiana. Most unstable CAPE was only around 250J/kg, but mid-level lapse rates were 6.5-7 C/km and low-level lapse rates were 6-6.5 C/km. Right near the trough line, the shear was negligible. The cluster formed into a single bow echo that produced damaging winds as it moved east along and north of Interstate 64. Some more isolated wind damage was noted farther south.
Began near Haubstadt (38.2026, -87.5740).
