Wider weather episode

Remnants of Tropical Storm Olga pushed through the lower Ohio Valley and generated lines of showers. Some of these showers produced winds over 60 mph and sporadic wind damage in southern Indiana and central Kentucky. The showers were low-topped and the convection was weak. There was no trailing stratiform precipitation or low level cold pool behind the lines of convection. The lines of showers showed little bowing and no significant rotation. Strong synoptic winds associated with the tropical system's remnants were mixed to the surface on the leading edge of clearing.
