Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA warm and humid airmass was in place across Iowa on the 25th. The flow was quite weak with only 5 to 10 kts of shear. Afternoon temperatures warmed into the 80s with dew points in the mid 60s to around 70. There was a fair amount of instability with available CAPE around 3500 J/kg by early to mid afternoon. A weak cold frontal boundary extended from north central into southwest Iowa by mid afternoon. Thunderstorms developed in the unstable air ahead of this boundary. Spotty reports of high winds and hail were received. Hail up to an inch in diameter covered the ground in Union County near Cromwell. High winds of 70 to 85 MPH occurred with some of the storms. Power poles were broken by high winds in Forest City in Winnebago County. A garage was destroyed in Guthrie County when the wind blew into the open doors and tore the garage from its foundation and slamming it into grain bins. With the weak flow, the storms were very slow moving. Heavy rainfall occurred with some of the storms, which resulted in local flash flooding. Heavy rainfall resulted in 2 feet of running water over the road west of Greenfield on Highway 92. In Union County, reports of 3.5 to over 4 inches of rain were received. Three and one half inches of rain fell in 30 minutes southwest of Cromwell in Adams County.
