The wider storm

Severe storms developed along an approaching front on Monday, June 14th. Strong shear (60kts in the 0-6km layer), moderate instability (CAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg), and dry mid-level air helped produce strong downdrafts and hail.

An isolated supercell developed ahead of an advancing boundary and quickly spun up a tornado near Pleasant Valley, WV.

Began near Porterwood (39.1200, -79.6800).
