Strong storms that moved into western Iowa Tuesday afternoon, brought hail, winds of up to 60 miles per hour, and caused scattered power outages. According to the National Weather Service, a thunderstorm wind gust of up to 60-mph at around 3-p.m. was recorded by an Iowa DOT system, and hail a bit larger than the size of peas was observed. The event occurred about two-miles south/southeast of Adair.
Four-miles north/northeast of Anita, about 10-minutes earlier, a DOT automated site recorded a 60-mile per hour gust of wind. Power lines and/or poles were reported down in Kimballton Tuesday afternoon, as well, after storms pushed their way through Shelby and Audubon Counties.
