Additional thunderstorms developed during the evening along outflow boundaries, and gained upper level support from a shortwave that moved from Illinois, through Indiana, into Ohio. Most of the damage from the severe thunderstorms was in the form of downed trees and power lines. A tree was blown on to a house in Bardstown in Nelson County, and there was some roof damage in Nicholasville in Jessamine County.
