The wider storm
From April 24 to April 27, daily thunderstorms developed during the late afternoon and evening, triggered by a dryline and a meandering frontal boundary. These long-lasting supercells were fueled by a highly unstable and sheared environment, resulting in several tornadoes, damaging winds, and very large hail. Two fatalities occurred on April 25th.
