Summary

  • A bow echo moved across southern New York late on the 2nd, producing spotty wind damage and 2 EF1 tornadoes.
  • The environment associated with this event included modest amounts of instability, and increasing wind shear associated with a low-level south-southwesterly jet.
  • High resolution models indicated a linear storm evolution, however the SPC storm scale ensemble and sounding-based analogs did not indicate a major severe weather outbreak.
