Sunday Night Thunderstorms Update #3

Last update of the night as the storms have become a long line of showers and embedded thunderstorms just ahead of the cold front. This line of thunderstorm currently is along and northwest of a Forest City, to Fort Dodge, to Logan line. A few of these storms may be able to produce gusty winds in excess of 40 mph, and some small hail. The strongest cell at this time is near Gilmore City, some marginal hail may be possible as Des Moines NWS has mentioned that the storm is pushing the severe limits right now.

The line of storms should move to the southeast at generally 25 mph, continuing to progress through the state during the nighttime hours. The east/west extent of the line is fairly significant, nearly 100 miles at this time. Have a good night... Enjoy the sound of rain and thunder!
