A strong storm system moving along the Canadian border dragged a cold front through eastern Iowa, northwest Illinois and far northeast Missouri during the afternoon and evening hours on June 30, 2014. A line of thunderstorms developed in central Iowa and quickly accelerated east as line of severe thunderstorms and bow echo that produced a path of straightline wind damage across eastern Iowa and northwest Illinois north of Interstate 80. In addition to the straightline wind, heavy rains of 2 to 5 inches produced widespread flash flooding.
