It started just east of the corner of 86th and Douglas in Urbandale. Lots of tree's and fences down. Couple of homes had their roofs taken to the rafters. Some tree's that didn't go down took a hair cut. Not Oklahoma City type of stuff.......but damage none the less.
The DSM Dome is beginning to crack....

There was no formal warning..............but you could tell this was different by the way the clouds were moving. Almost like looking up at a large slow moving whirlpool coming your way.

Fortunate it was weak enough at ground level or there would have been injuries.

Our house in Ankeny ended up with 0.8 inches of rain. Not as much as I was hoping for, but I'll take it. Grateful there was no storm damage.

Overall was pretty fortunate I think. Was amazed our power didn't go out. I am getting sick and tired of cleaning up branches again but if that is the worst of it this storm season I will consider myself lucky.

I had 1.05” digital and 1.2” analog. That’s the first time time year I’ve seen a difference. It was quick and sideways.
