| Episode Narrative | A seasonally strong low pressure system lifted northeast from northern Kansas to extreme western Iowa, on March 31, 2007. A warm front moved northward into northeast Iowa followed by a cold front sweeping across eastern Iowa into Illinois. These frontal boundaries triggered thunderstorms, and with sufficient low level wind shear, allowed for many to rotate. Most of the thunderstorms produced large hail and damaging wind. |
| Event Narrative | Sheriffs department reported many large trees down, some blocking roads in the Galena area. |
