A cluster of robust, intense severe thunderstorms developed during the morning horurs of June 2nd. Exceptional updrafts evident within these storms and high reflectivities through a deep layer within the thunderstorms (70 dbz to nearly 50,000 ft)produced hail up to the size of softballs at several locations across the county warning area.  The stones caused the most damage on the southwest side of the city of Manhattan, where the airport, numerous businesses, and hundreds of vehicles were pummeled with the large stones. Residents noted that it was so dark under the storms, that they needed a flashlight to see. A newspaper interview noted that one resident reported that gravel was shooting ten feet in the air, driven by the large hail. Farm fields across portions of Franklin County also showed extensive damage. Small animals that were unable to seek shelter also fell victim to the hail stones.  One Manhattan resident reported dead rabbits, squirrels, owls, and quail in his neighborhood.
The somewhat discrete storms congealed into a convective line as they pushed southeastward across the county warning area, and the primary severe weather threat became strong winds. Residents and law enforcement officers across portions of Douglas, Franklin, Anderson, and Jefferson Counties reported wind gusts in the 60 to 70 mile per hour range. Two individuals in Shawnee County measured wind gusts of 80 miles per hour. Power outages were reported across the city of Topeka, with some residents left without power through that evening.
