A strong low pressure system tracked through the eastern Great Lakes on April 26. A warm front moved through the mid-Atlantic that morning with an initial round of locally strong but sub-severe convection. That afternoon, an approaching cold front triggered widespread severe thunderstorm development. Widespread wind damage occurred as initially semi-discrete storms merged into a squall line. No tornado touchdowns were confirmed, but at least one funnel cloud was observed.
