A deep upper level trough of lower pressure was situated just off the west coast of the United States in the eastern Pacific.  Good dynamics at the base of this trough and a southerly, divergent flow pattern at upper levels generated a baroclinic zone that stretched from eastern Oregon to eastern Washington.  Low level moisture streaming northward east of this zone resulted in an unstable atmosphere across the warm sector that included extreme eastern Washington.  A strong veering shear profile in this same area provided the ideal ingredients for supercell development.

National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed tornado damage that originated in an open desert, native to only small juniper trees and cactus. Based on multiple eyewitness accounts, several photos and video, the landspout began as two dust devils merged. The circulation grew vertically and made connection with the parent thunderstorm as it moved east. Interestingly though, the parent storm moved southeast. The landspout moved over two stock tanks. One was blown back to the west approximately 20 feet and hit a steel fence that was dented. The other tank was blown approximately 0.75 miles to the east and was mangled and in pieces. The landspout crossed State Road 107 and increased in intensity. Numerous pinon and juniper trees as well as cholla cacti were uprooted and displaced between 20 and 100 feet. No homes or outbuildings were damaged or destroyed. Peak wind speed was estimated at 90 mph.

The unseasonably dry weather in 2012, was even drier in March and continued during the first three weeks of April. The Drought Monitor was raised to D2 (severe drought) in Delaware on April 10th. Landscapers in Newark (New Castle County) reported that trees planted last year were dying from the lack of rain. Other vegetation, such as ornamentals, shrubs, hollies and evergreens were succumbing to the dry conditions. Farmers throughout the state were delaying some planting because of the lack of moisture in the soil. Field irrigation has begun unusually early and even included winter wheat crops. Lawn growth has been slowed drastically. While one to two inches of rain fell on the 22nd, it did little to improve conditions and raise the drought status. Sections of Kent and Sussex Counties remained in severe drought (D2) status at the end of the month.  On a county weighted average, the state of Delaware counties averaged either 2.8 or 2.9 inches of precipitation during April, which was around 0.5 inches below normal.
