A weak upper level disturbance and associated surface front moved across Central Alabama on Sunday, August 21. Scattered thunderstorms developed ahead of the short wave, causing isolated wind damage. The upper level disturbance quickly moved east of the area, leaving the front to slowly push southward during the day on Monday, August 22. South of this boundary, scattered thunderstorms developed again as a result of mesoscale boundary interactions within a moist and unstable airmass, resulting in isolated damage.

While much of eastern Nebraska was lashed with multiple severe storms on this Thursday afternoon and evening, South Central Nebraska caught only a glancing blow across a handful of far eastern counties as a southward-moving supercell cluster tracked through areas mainly east of a line from Fullerton to York. This supercell initiated in Holt County around 4 PM CDT, and gradually pushed southeast, first entering eastern Nance County around 8 PM, and slipping southeast out of Polk and York Counties around 930 PM. Although this storm appeared to have tornadic potential as it moved into the area, it quickly become outflow-dominant, and resulted in only limited severe weather reports including quarter size hail between Genoa and Fullerton and 60 MPH winds near Shelby.
South Central Nebraska was likely spared a more significant coverage of severe storms by a stout capping inversion aloft, evidenced by 700 millibar temperatures of at least 14-16 degrees Celsius. Just off to the east though, slightly cooler air aloft and pronounced low-mid level warm air advection focused a much greater coverage of severe storms. Despite the limited scope of storms in the local area, the mesoscale environment was quite supportive of severe weather given a very unstable airmass featuring at least 4000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE, seasonably strong deep-layer vertical wind shear around 50 knots, and the presence of a northwest-southeast oriented surface warm front. In the mid and upper levels, pronounced west-northwest flow was noted, along the northeast periphery of an expansive subtropical ridge centered over the southwest United States.
