(Atlantic, Iowa) – Severe storms erupted across parts of Montgomery, Cass, Adair, Audubon and other area Counties Monday evening. Storms that struck Atlantic at around 5-p.m. brought intense wind and heavy rain, that resulted in street flooding and much tree damage. It appears the eastern side of Atlantic was hardest hit, with a tree at 15th and Olive coming down very near and possibly on a home. (Photos by KJAN News Director Ric Hanson)

Numerous streets were blocked or at the very least littered with tree/branch debris. A severe thunderstorm warning was issued for southeastern Cass County at around 4:15-p.m., Monday.  A severe thunderstorm watch was issued for many counties across southwest and central Iowa just at around 4:45-p.m., and a warning for northern Cass County was issued at about the time the storm hit Atlantic.
