Wider weather episode

A deep low pressure system moved through the Mid Mississippi Valley driving a squall line and associated severe thunderstorms across Southeast Tennessee during the morning followed by a secondary area of severe convective development ahead of the slow moving system cold front during the evening. In addition, due to the strong pressure gradient within this dynamic system, a mountain wave event occurred across the terrain along the Tennessee and North Carolina line, as well as the Cumberland Plateau.
