The episode as NWS JKL wrote it up.
A dynamic storm system brought a sharp transition from record-breaking warmth to severe weather across eastern Kentucky on March 11th. Ahead of an approaching cold front, unseasonably warm air surged into the region on a potent low-level jet, with temperatures reaching record levels at London and Jackson. Widespread non-convective wind gusts between 30 and 50 mph occurred during the afternoon.
As the cold front moved in during the evening, a pre-frontal squall line (QLCS) developed in a high shear environment and tracked across the Commonwealth. The most intense measured wind gust was 70 mph at the London-Corbin Airport ASOS. Elsewhere, the storms resulted in structural damage, scattered downed trees, and a few power outages before a sharp cold front crossed the area, ushering in a much drier and colder airmass.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Jackson, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Mar 11, 10:03 AM EST, 7 hours earlier. Its key messages:
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED National Weather Service Jackson KY 1103 AM EDT Wed Mar 11 2026 .KEY MESSAGES... - Unseasonably warm weather will last through today. Latest forecasts anticipates near-record or record temperatures at both London and Jackson today. - A Slight Risk for severe thunderstorms remains for all of eastern Kentucky for this afternoon and evening, with damaging winds and isolated tornadoes the primary severe threats. - Torrential downpours, hail up to 1 inch in diameter, and wind gusts outside of storms between 30 and 40 mph are also possible. - After a sharp cooldown behind a cold front on Thursday, mild temperatures return for Friday into the weekend. && .UPDATE... Issued at 1102 AM EDT WED MAR 11 2026 Significant breaks in the clouds have developed since sunrise, with dewpoints in the upper 50s to low 60s for the most part and some mid 60s to near 70 dewpoints near Lake Cumberland. Recent mesoanalysis from 14Z (10 AM EDT) has CIN remaining across most of the area with MLCAPE generally 500 J/kg or less in the north and greater than 500J/kg in the Cumberland Valley with little or no CIN. However, by 16Z to 18Z, MLCAPE may reach 700 to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE from near KSYM and KLOZ that translates northeast to areas north of KY 80 thereafter. This should coincide with 5.5 to 6.5C/km mid level lapse rates and low level lapse rates reach the 6.5 to 7.5C/km with these numbers RAP based. Effective shear should average 50 to 55KT around that timeframe, though could be a bit stronger. Assuming continued insolation, isolated to scattered and potentially robust convection may develop in the KSME to KLOZ to KJKL to near or south of I-64 corridor and then translate east north of the Hal Rogers Pkwy to KY 80 corridor in the next 2 hours and then shifts into WV. This activity if it materializes should have supercell characteristics and would present a risk of all hazards. Isolated activity will remain possible outside of this area and areawide during the mid afternoon though mid afternoon could be a period of overall lull. Then additional activity is anticipated per CAMS after about 4 PM EDT that moves from west to east or northwest to southeast across the area. At that point effective shear should still average in the 50 to 60KT range 5.5C/km to 6.5C/km mid level lapse rates and roughly 6.5 to 7.5C/km low level lapse rates with MLCAPE of roughly 500 to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE. A QLCS line or line segments appear to be the primary mode in the 4 to 9 PM EDT timeframe with strong to damaging wind the primary hazard, though an embedded spin up tornado or hail may also occur. If storms were to train over an area, then high water would become a risk as well. Hourly pops were updated based on recent trends in CAMS and a severe POT was added to the grids. Other hourly grids were freshened up based on recent observations. UPDATE Issued at 736 AM EDT WED MAR 11 2026 Morning update is primarily just a refresh of the going forecast. Pops might be a bit overdone for many areas this morning, but am hesitant to make significant changes given the uncertainties and complexities of the forecast. UPDATE Issued at 522 AM EDT WED MAR 11 2026 Convection has a been a bit slow to get going overnight so far, but new upstream activity is starting to develop to the west and southwest under the low-level jet core. This makes for a somewhat uncertain PoP forecast through the morning as this activity approaches or brushes the area to the northwest. Otherwise, the forecast remains on track for later today. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday) Issued at 347 AM EDT WED MAR 11 2026 A potent disturbance and cold front will cross the area this evening and bring with it breezy to windy conditions along with the threat for strong to severe thunderstorms. A much cooler airmass spills into eastern Kentucky with rain ending as a very brief period of snow across the higher terrain of southeastern Kentucky during the early morning hours Thursday, with the parent upper trough crossing the area during the afternoon hours as surface high pressure ushers in a much drier and cooler air mass into the region. A Wind Advisory was issued for the Bluegrass counties and neighboring counties for today, with wind gusts peaking around 40 mph, though a few gusts to 50 mph cannot be completely ruled out if sufficient deep mixing is realized, which is somewhat lower confidence at this time. There is also the potential for the Wind Advisory to be expanded east across more of eastern and northeastern Kentucky later this morning. The other concern for today is the risk for severe thunderstorms this afternoon into the evening. Models suggest a strengthening of a low-level jet across central to northeastern Kentucky right at peak heating this afternoon into early evening as the cold front approaches. Assuming even modest destabilization is able to occur after a morning period of convection, especially across our western and northern counties, the dynamics easily support a severe weather risk. In fact, while the current SPC Day 1 Slight Risk appears plenty sufficient, it would not be surprising to see an upgrade from SPC to an Enhanced Risk for some parts of northeastern Kentucky if the question of degree of destabilization is resolved, especially if it becomes more likely that parts of the area may realize 1000-1500 J/kg of SBCAPE by mid- to late afternoon. The main convective mode looks to be line segments and clusters, but discrete supercells will be possible as well if the dynamics and thermodynamics align favorably. Damaging winds and brief tornadoes will be the primary concern, but large hail would also be a concern with any supercells. .LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Tuesday) Issued at 514 AM EDT WED MAR 11 2026 At the open of the long term period (Thursday evening), high pressure builds into the area. Backing winds go from light westerly winds early in the evening, to southerly winds through the night. With light southerly winds overnight, and mostly clear skies, low temperatures are expected to drop into the upper 20s to low 30s in sheltered hollows and valley locations. Elsewhere, temperatures in the mid to upper 30s are expected along ridgetops. An upper level low strengthens in the Dakotas and digs into the Upper Great Lakes on Friday. A strong 70-75 knot 850-mb LLJ will pass through the Ohio Valley during the day. This will lead to strong southwest winds with the potential for strong wind gusts. 12Z LREF ensemble guidance shows the forecast area along and north of the Hal-Rogers/KY-80 corridor with a 90% or greater chance of seeing gusts of 35 mph, while still maintaining a 70% or greater chance of 40 mph gusts across the same area. A model BUFKIT sounding for Jackson shows momentum transfer of 35-40 kts (approximately 40-45 mph). This same model sounding for Morehead, closer to the core of the LLJ, shows momentum transfer of 43 kts (close to 50 mph). Wind gusts for Friday mid-morning through the afternoon were adjusted up using a 75/25 blend of the 90th percentile NBM with itself. Budding trees and vegetation drawing water from the ground along with drier air moving into the area will create elevated to critical fire weather conditions. Afternoon dew points were adjusted downward using a blend of the 5th and 10th percentile from the NBM. This yields dew points in the low 20s, and RH values ranging from the low to mid 30s near the I-75 corridor, to RH's in the upper teens and low 20s farther east. With strong southwest winds through the afternoon, temperatures will climb into the upper 50s in the north to mid 60s further south. Friday evening, light westerly winds will veer to northeasterly by Saturday morning. Dry conditions continue, with temperatures dropping into the 30s. Saturday, remains quiet, with light easterly winds and temperatures warming into the upper 50s to upper 60s north to south. Saturday evening a trough begins to develop in the Northern Rockies and digs into the Central Plains early Sunday. A warm front will be just north of the state, in the Ohio Valley. Being in the warm sector, temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 70s. Winds may be breezy to gusty, with LREF probabilities of seeing gusts of at least 35 mph are generally around or north of 75%. Later Sunday evening into early Monday, the approaching systems cold front will pass through Eastern Kentucky, leading to another round of showers and thunderstorms. As the trough axis digs south over Kentucky Sunday night, temperatures drop into the low to mid 30s which will lead to a wintry rain-snow mix. Monday, as the trough begins to lift northeast, snow showers will taper off through the day, with temperatures reaching the low to mid 40s across the area. Although the low and trough are departing to the east, the area will still be under northwest flow. allowing cold air to advect in. As it does, temperatures drop into the low to mid 20s area wide Monday night. An embedded shortwave ejects out of the Northern Rockies which may bring another shot of active weather mid week. At this time Tuesday looks to remain dry through most of the day. Temperatures remain in the upper 30s to low 40s through Tuesday, dropping into the mid to upper 20s at night. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning) ISSUED AT 714 AM EDT WED MAR 11 2026 VFR to borderline MVFR/VFR conditions are expected to prevail through this afternoon outside of showers and thunderstorms, though reductions to MVFR or lower conditions are possible within any heavier showers and storms. Widespread reductions to MVFR and lower are expected with the arrival and passage of a strong cold front this evening, with improvements to cigs to VFR conditions by the end of the TAF period for KIOB, KSYM, KSME, and KLOZ. Winds will continue to increase at the surface with a low-level jet overhead through this morning, with strong mixing resulting in widespread southwesterly 25 to 35 kt wind gusts this afternoon across TAF sites. Winds will abruptly veer to northwesterly this evening and gradually diminish with the passage of the cold front this evening. && .JKL WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
