| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A very moist airmass was in place over Iowa with precipitable water values over 2 inches. The atmosphere was relatively unstable with CAPE around 2000 J/kg and shear around 30 kts. A synoptic warm frontal boundary was located over northern Iowa, however a weak outflow boundary that remained from prior convection remained just south of the state. As the low level jet increased in the evening, thunderstorms formed over southwest Iowa. The thunderstorms became a slow moving MCS as it drifted northeast. They produced heavy rainfall with two to four inches common from southwest into central Iowa. The heaviest rainfall report was in Cass County at Massena with 4.9 inches. Some local flooding occurred, however there were no reports of either significant flooding or of severe weather with the storms. |
