Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA strong push of cold air moved into the central US during the afternoon of the 5th through the early morning of the 7th. Arctic air spilled south. Temperatures were not all that atypical for January, though the last time it has been this cold was in January of 2010. Winds of 25 to 45 MPH produced bitterly cold wind chills of 40 to 50 below zero over the north half of Iowa, with 35 to 40 degree below zero readings over the south. The winds caused spotty power outages around the state. An initial wave of outages affected the metro Des Moines area in the late afternoon and early evening The first outage reported about 5,000 out -- 2,000 customers out in Johnston, about 1,000 in Grimes and more than 1,500 out in Urbandale. A second outage impacted 7,400 customers with 3,000 in Johnston and 3,500 in Urbandale about 2100 CST. By 2200 CST, all but 900 in Urbandale had been restored.
