- Overview of Jan. 29 storms and detailed list of preliminary storm reports
A powerful cold front barreled across the area late Tuesday afternoon and evening. Moist southerly flow converging ahead of the front resulted in the development of a narrow line of showers and thunderstorms over southeast Missouri and southern Illinois late in the afternoon. This line quickly traversed east into southwest Indiana and western Kentucky early in the evening. Just enough instability was present in the lower part of the atmosphere to mix down very strong winds aloft. There were numerous reports of strong wind gusts in excess of 60 mph. In some cases, winds even gusted to 70 to 80 mph.
Listed below is a preliminary summary of storm reports from across the area. This includes not only a few hail reports, but also thunderstorm and non-thunderstorm gradient wind damage. Information continues to come in to the National Weather Service at Paducah. Watch this page for updates.
