Overview
|
Storms developed during the late afternoon hours on June 15th over south central Kansas. With an extremely unstable environment in place, these storms quickly became severe. Outflow from these storms then allowed additional development to occur for the next several hours. The slow movement of the storms lead to flash flooding, especially across northern Sedgwick and southern Harvey counties. In addition, up to 2 inch hail was reported over parts of south central Kansas. |
