A deep, full-latitude upper trough was sweeping from the central U.S. into the eastern U.S. during this period.  As with the event exactly one week before, a warm, moist air mass was present across the region in advance of this front.  Once again, a strong line of thunderstorms, or quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) formed in advance of the cold front associated with the upper low, moving through the region during peak heating time, namely afternoon and early evening.  Some discrete strong cells were also noted in advance of the main thunderstorm line, but many of these managed to remain just east or south of the Blacksburg County Warning Area (CWA).  As with the event on April 12th, the Piedmont region of Southside Virginia and north central North Carolina was the hardest hit.  Dozens to hundreds of trees were blown down by strong thunderstorm winds gusts from Stokes county on the west end to Caswell county on the east end.
