Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	Thunderstorms that moved through western Iowa during the evening of the 29th into the early morning hours of the 30th continued into the day on the 30th. The airmass where the storms were had become stabilized as the outflow boundary had outrun the convection. Just east of the line however, instability still existed with the lifted index around -2 C, 1000 J/kg of CAPE, and at least 40 kts of shear available. A cold front entered western Iowa during the morning, and progressed eastward as a strong upper level shortwave lifted out of the southwest U.S. This rekindled the thunderstorm line from the previous night and the storms became severe by mid to late morning. The only severe weather produced was in the form of dime to quarter size hail from south central into southeast Iowa. Lightning struck a tree in Bremer County, taking it down. As the thunderstorms moved east of the Ottuwma area, lightning strikes from the back side of the storm struck a house in Ottumwa, causing minor damage.
