sweetapricity/bridgedeck-noaa huggingface dataset:
A surface-850 mb frontal zone spreading southward allowed for boundary layer moisture pooling just ahead of it, mainly over south southern into west central counties. This became the favored area for isolated to a few strong to severe storms in the 23-02Z timeframe, aided by a shortwave exiting the
central Rockies very late evening and overnight.  This system caused severe wind and heavy rain.
