Event narrative: Severe thunderstorms tracked across Palo Pinto County on the evening of May 11th, with one supercell producing a brief EF-1 tornado with maximum winds around 90 mph. The tornado began on a private ranch south of Highway 180. Most of the damage consisted of uprooted trees, with large tree limbs also found across the area. A snapped and twisted tree trunk was found near the start of the track. As the tornado tracked northwest toward Highway 180, similar damage was found to trees along the highway, in addition to damage to an adjacent metal fence along the right of way. The end of the tornado was determined by radar due to inaccessible areas north of Highway 180 near Ro Bell Road.
Episode narrative: On the evening of May 7th, a line of thunderstorms produced severe winds, severe hail, heavy rain, and even two landspouts across parts of the southern and southwestern Chicago metro. The heaviest of the rainfall occurred along a narrow corridor stretching from far southern Lee County southeastward into east-central Kankakee County where widespread 2+ inch rainfall totals were reported with a few spots seeing between four and five inches of rain. Additionally, strong outflow winds from nearby thunderstorms kicked up significant amounts of blowing dust across parts of southern LaSalle County and towards the I-55 corridor in Livingston County. This was preceded by an abnormally dry period stretching back to early April leading to dry soil conditions in the area. Multiple reports of near-zero visibility resulted in the issuance of two Dust Storm Warnings, the first such warnings issued by the Chicago WFO.

Event narrative: This tornado began near the intersection of Ashley 270 Road and Ashley 25 Road west of the Overflow National Wildlife Refuge in southern Ashley County. As it moved northeast, the tornado uprooted, snapped, or damaged trees along its path. It crossed over several highways, county roads, and low-lying areas through the county until it reached Montrose near the intersection of US Highway 82 and 165. There the tornado intensified to its maximum intensity of EF-2 with estimated peak winds of 120 mph.  Along US 82 near 9th Street, a small guest home on concrete blocks was pushed off its foundation and destroyed.  A nearby mobile home was rolled across three parked cars which were also destroyed. Several sheds and outbuildings were destroyed in the immediate vicinity as well. Widespread damage was common in the western part of town where many homes suffered minor to moderate roof damage.  Several trees were uprooted or snapped along with continued minor to moderate residential damage as the tornado moved northeast and across northern Montrose. It crossed US 165 north of Montrose where an outbuilding was destroyed. As the tornado moved into farmland northeast of town, a center pivot irrigation system was destroyed.  It continued northeast into Chicot County and across the intersection of Arkansas Highways 144 and 293 where a home and several buildings lost roofing and paneling, and some power poles were blown down. The tornado crossed US Highway 65 and Cedar Road near the Bellaire community in northern Chicot County, blew down a few power poles and damaged a few trees, and then dissipated shortly after crossing into Desha County.

Event narrative: This short-lived tornado is believed to have touched down near Panhandle Road, just west of Wolfe Road. One house on Panhandle Road had siding damage on the east-facing wall. A shed behind another home was largely demolished, with debris strewn about a quarter mile into the field to the north-northeast.

A few homes on Wolfe Road had roof and siding damage. One home even had damage to the siding on both the east and north facing walls. Some minor tree damage was observed near a bend in Wolfe Road with no additional damage observed further to the north.
Episode narrative: The most widespread severe thunderstorm activity in many months broke out across eastern Kentucky on Tuesday, May 16th. A warm front lifted to near the Mountain Parkway during the morning hours, ushering in a muggy airmass for those locations to the south of the Parkway. Sun shining on this juicy air mass helped build up moderate amounts of instability south of the warm front as temperatures warmed into the upper 70s to mid 80s there. Meanwhile, persistent cloud cover and a weak northeasterly breeze north of the front kept temperatures cooler and conditions much more stable. A wave of low pressure rode along the stalled warm front during this afternoon, triggering supercell storms in the area between the warm front and the Hal Rogers Parkway/KY-80 corridor. These storms dropped severe to significant-sized hail. One of the supercells also produced a brief tornado in Magoffin County southwest of Salyersville. Further south, weaker shear led to less organized storm structures, but even there the storms still generated strong outflows leading to bowing storm lines and damaging wind gusts.

Event narrative: An NWS Survey Team, in conjunction with Magoffin County Emergency Management, confirmed that an EF-1 Tornado touched down on a hillside southwest of Board Tree Rd, crossed the road and then traveled through the holler/drainage along Williams Arnett Cemetery Rd. It then climbed up the adjacent ridgeline before weakening and dissipating. Several structures sustained minor damage, and  many trees were snapped or uprooted.
Episode narrative: Broad troughing was present aloft across the Western US during the afternoon/evening of the 19th. An area of surface low-pressure slowly deepened and moved towards north-central Kansas, with dryline extending from central Kansas through western-north Texas by the late afternoon hours. A well-timed lead upper wave, combined with broken insolation, led to the development of a few supercell thunderstorms across central Oklahoma. Multiple instances of large to very large (>2 inches) hail, along with 18 tornadoes, occurred across central Oklahoma.

Episode narrative: A very strong system developed on the morning of March 31st and tracked across the state of Iowa. This system pulled unseasonably warm and moist air into the Midwest, which combined with a very favorable wind profile to create a volatile environment for severe thunderstorms.  Discrete supercell thunderstorms occurred initially, but quickly transitioned into a QLCS mode. This system produced a historic tornado outbreak for the area, with a record 29 tornadoes on the day, including 13 rated EF-2, 1 rated EF-3, and 1 rated EF-4. This was the first EF-4 tornado in the NWS Quad Cities service area since 1995. 11 injuries were reported, with no known fatalities. In addition to the numerous tornadoes, there were many large hail and damaging wind reports. Maximum straight line thunderstorm winds were estimated at 80 to 90 mph.

Event narrative: Another large, violent tornado developed in eastern Keokuk County as the initial tornado was weakening southwest of Keota. The tornado tracked to the northeast, on the western fringe of Keota, and crossed into Washington County near the intersection of Keokuk-Washington Road and 180th St. The tornado then continued through northwest Washington county, extreme southeast Iowa County, and into far southwest Johnson County. The tornado severely damaged several homes near Keota, wiping one house completely off its foundation, resulting in EF-4 level damage. A car was lofted in the air and tossed about 1000 feet into a nearby field and trees were completely debarked with only stubs of the largest branches remaining. As the tornado tracked west of Wellman, Iowa it knocked over a 325 ft cell phone tower. The tornado began to dissipate as it tracked into far southwest Johnson County. The tornado was rated EF-4 in Keokuk County, EF-3 in Washington County, and EF-1 in Iowa and Johnson Counties.

Event narrative: A National Weather Service Melbourne damage survey confirms that an EF-1 tornado impacted the South Patrick Shores community just south of Patrick Space Force Base. The tornado touched down initially in the Lighthouse Landing subdivision near the intersection of Lighthouse Landing St. and South Patrick Dr. The circulation continued on an east-northeast trajectory across the South Patrick Shores community before emerging into the Atlantic near Ocean Blvd. and SR A1A. The tornado was on the ground for approximately 1.0 mile, had a maximum width of approximately 300 yards, and peak winds estimated between 90-100 mph.

Brevard County Emergency Management conducted a damage assessment and noted numerous homes were affected with at least some damage, 25 homes with minor damage, and 10 with major damage. NWS meteorologists documented impacts on both the north and south sides of the tornadic circulation in an area bounded by SE 1st St. to the south and NE 2nd St. to the north. Numerous homes in this area experienced at least partial losses of their carports and awnings. Additionally, several homes lost portions of their roof, a few trees were uprooted, and between 6-10 power poles were snapped in this area.

Event narrative: A tornado developed just southwest of Coralville, crossed Highway 218 and damaged the James St. Warehouse near Highway 6 in Coralville. Several trailers and a truck were flipped over in the vicinity. A retail building also had part of a roof lifted off with several vehicles rolled or flipped. The tornado then tracked into a residential area and uprooted and snapped numerous trees. At least 2 injuries were reported by emergency management. Damage then became more sporadic before the tornado reintensified across Coralville Reservoir. A more concentrated path began near Sugar Bottom campground east of North Liberty and continued northeast towards Solon. A radio tower collapsed and a roof was lifted off a home and partially removed. The tornado continued northeast into a field before eventually reaching another farmstead and destroying an outbuilding. Debris from the farmstead was lofted into a field with a 2x4 driven into the ground. The tornado continued into Solon, uprooting trees, bending street signs, and destroying another outbuilding before dissipating and lifting just north of Sutliff Rd.
Episode narrative: As an upper-level low approached Middle Tennessee on June 11, 2023, it along with warm, moist air, plenty of instability, and deep wind shear helped to set the stage for severe weather across much of the area. Before a line of thunderstorms along a cold front arrived, however, the thunderstorms that developed ahead of it brought the first and most significant round of severe weather. These thunderstorms developed strong mesocyclones that were able to produce large hail and damaging winds. Several reports of hail larger than one inch were received with the largest hailstone about 1.75 inches in Pickett County. It was across the Cumberland Plateau where favorable amounts of helicity were also present where three tornadoes occurred. All three were rated EF-1, but one of these tornadoes in Fentress County was on the ground for nearly 11 miles. Fortunately, no injuries or fatalities were reported.

No injuries or fatalities were reported. Damages are a rough estimate.
Episode narrative: Showers and thunderstorms initially developed over the higher terrain of the Laramie Range late in the afternoon on 6/21, rapidly increasing in both coverage and intensity as they tracked slowly eastward through the evening. This activity evolved into a large, slow moving cluster of moderate to heavy rain and embedded thunderstorms, with pockets of small to marginally severe (quarter to half dollar sized) hail associated with the strongest precipitation cores. Flash flooding was also observed in multiple locations due to the extended residence time of the higher rainfall rates.
