Flood in Caldwell County, Missouri

There was a social media report of some flooding over Highway F near Cowgill.

Late in the afternoon, and through the evening hours on June 24 a cluster of storms over southeast Nebraska congealed into a line of thunderstorms that focused across northern Missouri. Most notably within this line of storms was a cluster of QLCS tornadoes that formed in Grundy County. There may have been other tornadoes associated with circulations that were noted on radar, but emergency management confirmed damage consistent with tornadoes near Trenton and Laredo Missouri. Most of the damage was minor, but some grain bins being blown off their foundation was the highlight of the damage in the area. Rainfall was the other big story with this event as some areas received 6 to 10 inches of rain. Despite the excessive rain, the flash flooding was rather minor, however there were still numerous roads closed, and areas near Excelsior Springs were especially hard hit as the Fishing River rose out of its banks. Another semi-dramatic event occurred along I-29 just north of St. Joseph, where a crane that was being used to do road construction became unbalanced and tipped.
