Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	During the early morning hours of 7/21/08, thunderstorms quickly began to develop across Iowa in response to a 30 to 35kt low-level jet and an upper-level disturbance tracking eastward out of the Plains. The storms materialized and tracked along a subtle low-level moisture boundary that stretched from central Iowa into central Illinois. As they rolled eastward, they began to pick up momentum and soon began producing widespread damaging winds. The storms headed east-southeast into Knox, Fulton, and Peoria counties, where winds between 60 and 70 mph downed numerous trees and powerlines. Widespread wind damage continued further east in a large swath across Marshall, Woodford, Tazewell, and northern McLean counties where severe winds of 60 to 81 mph were reported. A lightning strike also did damage to a school roof in Bloomington.
