May 26th-27th Tornadoes Event

Overview

An upper low approached from the west with an attendant cold front. Ahead of the cold front, wedging was in place initially and eventually retreated northeast, allowing a warm front and a pre-frontal trough to move into the area. Ample moisture and low level shear brought several rounds of severe weather, which resulted in 4 tornadoes. The worst damage was near Goode, VA in Bedford County, with an EF-2 tornado.
