Episode Narrative April 5th started off with sunny skies which helped to warm things up. The sun in addition to a developing low pressure system in Kansas pushed a warm front northward into Iowa. The front stalled out along and south of Highway 34, leaving areas north of the boundary in the 60s, while those to the south rose into the 70s.

The sunshine coupled with increasing moisture levels resulted in thunderstorm development during the afternoon and evening. Some of the thunderstorms were severe, producing large hail and damaging winds. In addition, frequent lightning also accompanied the storms, with one lightning strike damaging a house.
Event Narrative More than half the homes in Woodbine, IL suffered some degree of damage as severe storms moved through the area around 1125 pm April 5. Most of the damage was from downed trees and limbs. Two parked semi-tractor trailers were overturned. Some utility poles snapped near the ground. A garden shed was blown over and other outbuildings were damaged. Shingles, sheets of tin roofing, and tree debris littered the streets. Several homes north of Woodbine and near Apple Canyon Lake sustained damage from fallen trees. This report was from the Freeport Journal Standard.
