Overview
|
Two different systems led to the development of two complexes of storms across our area on the afternoon of June 15th. A lingering small surface low leftover for overnight storms the previous night across western Nebraska moved into northeast Nebraska creating the complex of storms that produced five tornadoes across Madison, Stanton, and Cuming counties that evening, all rated between EF0 and EF1. To the south, an advancing warm front lifting northward out of Kansas led to the development of storms starting in south-central Nebraska that quickly developed into a line. This line moved eastward south of I-80 producing strong, damaging winds at times, with reports up to 69 mph. |
