The wider storm

An MCV lifting into eastern Iowa into the early afternoon, with favorable conditions led to funnel cloud formation in eastern Iowa, particularly near the Tama/Poweshiek county border. Following this activity, an upper level trough and associated cold front entered western Iowa into the afternoon and pushed across the state, with 1000-2000 J/kg of MLCAPE and shear around 20-30 kts allowing for some storms to become severe. This led to some damaging winds and hail to occur in portions of central Iowa, as well as heavy rain in central and northern Iowa given the slow-moving nature of the storms. A brief tornado occurred with thunderstorms northwest of Fort Dodge.

Began near Algona Muni Arpt (43.0800, -94.2700).
