Overview

Two storm complexes, often referred to as mesoscale convective systems, moved through eastern Kentucky during the day. The first tracked through during the early to mid afternoon hours, while the second followed in its wake from mid afternoon through the evening. Strong to severe winds along the leading edge of each complex led to scattered damage throughout eastern Kentucky, mainly consisting of downed trees. Additionally, isolated flash flooding occurred in Jackson and Whitley Counties due to the multiple rounds of heavy rainfall. Clover Bottom in particular saw very heavy rainfall as over 3 inches of rain in a short period of time damaged a portion of U.S. Highway 421.
