Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceTRAINED SPOTTER
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeScattered thunderstorms developed across north central Iowa along an elevated convergence zone in a near tropical atmosphere. Feed by a low level jet of 30 knots (about 35 mph), the thunderstorms evolved into a squall line that raced east southeast across eastern Iowa and northern Illinois. Wind damage was the most common severe report with severe crop damage occurring across a large portion of Benton County, and to a lesser extent across Iowa, Linn, and Clinton Counties. The wind combined with a large amount of cloud to ground lightning resulted in power failures across parts of eastern Iowa and took two public safety communication towers off the air.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA spotter reported 1.20 inches of rain in 30 minutes. There were numerous reports of estimated and measured wind gusts of 39 to 43 knots (45 to 50 mph) as the storms moved through the metro area.
