Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn unorganized area of low pressure was situated across areas of Nebraska and Iowa, with boundaries draped north and west of the state, early on the 15th. Throughout the day northwest winds transitioned the relatively stationary boundaries into cold fronts which entered northwest Iowa by early afternoon. Temperatures ahead of the front were modest in the 70s with dew points around 60. Resulting MUCAPE values ran from around 1000 J/kg in areas across northern Iowa to 2000+ J/kg across parts of southwest Iowa. Effective bulk wind shear were also borderline supportive for rotating storms in the 30 to 40kt range. The primary results of severe weather for this event were hail and heavy rainfall.
