Episode narrative: A Mesoscale Convective Vortex (MCV) that was a remnant of showers and thunderstorms over Central Oklahoma on July 11th, drifted east into Southwest Arkansas during the early morning hours of the 12th. This upper level disturbance moved over an area that was very warm, moist, and unstable, and focused a cluster of showers and thunderstorms throughout much of the morning hours before drifting east out of the region by midday. These showers and thunderstorms moved repeatedly over the same areas, and were efficient rainfall producers such that flash flooding was widespread across portions of Southwest Arkansas. Widespread rainfall amounts of 3-6 inches, with isolated higher amounts in excess of 8 inches, fell across portions of Southwest Arkansas before ending by the mid morning hours on the 12th. In addition, an isolated tornado was spawned from this cluster of thunderstorms over Eastern Lafayette County just south of Stamps before these storms shifted east of the region later that morning.

Episode narrative: Long duration severe weather event across the northeast plains, and most of the Denver metropolitan area beginning during the early afternoon hours.   Scores of  tornadoes occurred across Washington and Logan counties.  Several rounds of hail across the Denver metro, with ping pong ball sized hail in downtown, larger hail up to 2 inches in diameter at concert in Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

Event narrative: A tornado touched down briefly in open country. No damage was observed.
Episode narrative: The middle part of June was unusually stormy across the area. Numerous rounds of strong to severe storms impacted the region with multiple squall lines that produced severe winds as well as supercells that produced large hail and tornadoes.  Heavy rain also occurred over a multi-day period, which saturated the ground and led to some instances of flash flooding.  

The synoptic pattern featured well above average 250 mb zonal wind anomalies, which were traceable back to an active subtropical jet stream.  Greater than average instability was also present, in part due to anomalously warm Gulf of Mexico SSTs.  This combination of above average shear from the active subtropical jet and above average instability from the warmer than average SSTs provided a synoptic environment favorable for severe weather as upper level shortwaves moving through the area.  This pattern persisted for many days, leading to an unusually large amount of severe weather.

Episode narrative: Very hot and humid air in place across eastern Iowa, northwest Illinois, and far northeast Missouri interacted with a southward moving frontal boundary and disturbance aloft, setting the stage for development and organization of severe thunderstorms across the region. Storms initially formed from north central Iowa and southern Wisconsin along the frontal boundary, which slowly worked south into the hot, humid air in place across the region. As storms arrived across east central Iowa, they began producing winds around 70 MPH across the Hwy 20 corridor. Another storm to the south further intensified, and began producing winds of 80+ MPH as it tracked along the Hwy 30 corridor. This impacted the northern suburbs of Cedar Rapids into Clinton. These storms continued to produce wind gusts around 60-70 MPH as they progressed into northwest Illinois. One brief EF-0 tornado began in Clinton, Iowa, then moved across the Mississippi River before dissipating near Fulton, Illinois. Damage near Andrew, Iowa in Jackson County was determined to be straight-line winds. Storms additionally produced large hail around the Dubuque metro, with quarter size hail reported.
