Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA slow moving cold front worked its way across Iowa from northwest to southeast from the 24th through the 26th. With its slow moving nature, it was a decent setup for areas to see repeated rounds of rainfall. While the convective environment was not overly conducive for severe weather, a cluster of storms near Iowa Falls was able to produce damaging winds for a short period of time. Otherwise, the overall setup produced training storms and heavy rainfall thanks to the slow moving front, unstable air mass, and mean winds flowing parallel to the front. A number of locations received in excess of 3 inches of rainfall.
Event narrativeevent_narrativePublic reported storm total heavy rainfall of 2.50 inches on the west side of Ankeny.
