| episode_narrative | A strong storm system moved northeast across Kansas into northern Missouri during the late afternoon and early evening hours. There was a strong contrast across a warm front that extended east from the low. North of the front, afternoon temperatures were in the 50s, while mid 80s were common to the south of the front. In addition, surface dew point temperatures were in the mid 60s in the warm sector. Strong low level winds pushed the warm and moist air over the cold dome to the north of the warm front. During the evening hours. a negatively tilted upper level trough of low pressure lifted northeast across the area. This set the stage for widespread thunderstorm development. With the freezing level relatively low, only 11,000 feet, hail was the most common severe weather reported. There was one tornado that touched down briefly in Monroe and Wapello Counties. A second tornado touched down a short time later northeast of Ottumwa. No significant damage was reported with the tornado. Several of the storms produced hail up to about an inch in diameter. The stronger storms produced hail of golf ball size and larger. The largest hail, baseball size, was reported in Jasper County at Colfax, and also a report of baseball size hail was received from south of Eddyville in Wapello County and north of Avery in Monroe County. There were also several reports of golf ball size hail from around central into southeast Iowa. As the thunderstorms moved through Appanoose County, lightning struck a house in Moulton. The house was set on fire and burned to the ground. |
