A weak surface low traveled along a slow moving cold front across northern Vermont during the afternoon of June 5th. Scattered thunderstorms developed across Vermont during the afternoon and tapped into an unseasonably strong mid-atmospheric disturbance and wind field, which eventually resulted into a supercell that formed across southeast Franklin county, Vermont.
This supercell produced a brief EF1 tornado in Craftsbury (Orleans county) and resulted in numerous reports of wind damage and large hail, up to golfball size, downstream in Caledonia and Essex counties. This supercell continued across New Hampshire and Maine with similar reports, including two reported tornadoes.
