The wider storm

On the 14th, a cold front worked its way south through central Kentucky to Tennessee, but by the 16th, the slow moving front was on its way back north as a warm front. Even though the threat of severe weather was low, the moist environment produced isolated flash flooding in two central Kentucky counties.

Began near Tanner (37.5093, -85.7806).
