At 155 PM CDT, Doppler radar was tracking a cluster of strong

Counties. These storms were moving very slow to east around 10 mph.

Nickel size hail and winds in excess of 40 mph will be possible with
this storm.

Locations impacted include...
Grinnell, Montezuma, Brooklyn, Rock Creek Lake, Victor, Sully,
Kellogg, Lynnville, Malcom, Deep River, Barnes City, Oakland Acres,
Searsboro, Guernsey, Grinnell Regional Airport and Rock Creek State
Park.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Torrential rainfall is also occurring with these storms, and may 
lead to localized flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through 
flooded roadways.

Frequent cloud to ground lightning is occurring with this storm.
Lightning can strike 10 miles away from a thunderstorm. Seek a safe
shelter inside a building or vehicle.

If on central Iowa lakes, get out of the water and move indoors or 
inside a vehicle. Remember, lightning can strike out to 10 miles 
from the parent thunderstorm. If you can hear thunder, you are close 
enough to be struck by lightning. Move to safe shelter now! Do not 
be caught on the water in a thunderstorm.
