A somewhat complicated weather situation took shape over Iowa during the day on the 27th. A short wave lifted northeast across the state in the morning and produced a narrow line of thunderstorms. These storms resulted in a boundary from west central into north central Iowa. During the afternoon, a cold front approached Iowa from the northwest and reached the far northwest counties by late in the day. Another short wave lifted northeast into the central U.S. during the late afternoon as well
