Meteorology and Environment
 |
 |
 |
| A surface low around 1000 mb was located near Dubuque at 7 PM. This is a favorable low track for severe weather in our region. | Mixed layer CAPE (fuel available for thunderstorms) around 500-1000 J/kg was sufficient for severe storms. | The amount of wind shear (how much winds and directions change with height) was high, supportive of rotating updrafts and storm organization. |
