| episode_narrative | Mesoanalysis during the early morning depicted an outflow boundary extending from Central Illinois into Central Iowa with a cold front extending from Northeast Iowa into Eastern Nebraska, intersecting the outflow interface near Des Moines. An elevated bow MCS (Mesoscale Convective System) developed between Mason City and Marshalltown, and raced eastward into Eastern Iowa during the late morning and early afternoon. This system packed high winds and heavy rain as it swept across Eastern Iowa, mainly along and north of Interstate 80. Winds were measured at 60 to 70 mph over portions of the area, knocking down trees and limbs. Recent rains had already saturated the ground throughout Northeast and East Central Iowa. Additional heavy rain with this system forced creeks and streams out of their banks in Buchanan County, washing out several roads. The Little Wapsipinicon River at Fairbank was also sent out of it's banks. Doppler radar estimated rainfall rates of 2 to 3 inches per hour. The heavy rain also caused Duck Creek in Davenport to rise to bankfull in areas, and flooded portions of the bike path and surrounding areas near Brady Street. The bow MCS also spawned two weak tornadoes, one which touched down briefly at Alburnett in Linn County, and the other at Center Junction in Jones County. |
