A very unstable airmass was in place over Iowa during the afternoon of the 15th into the evening hours.  Temperatures warmed into the upper 80s to low 90s across the state during the afternoon, with dewpoints in the upper 60s to mid 70s.  This produced CAPE values around 4000 J/kg and lifted indices in the -8 to -13 C. range.  A cold front extended east-northeast to west-southwest just north of the state, however the main focus was along old boundaries from the previous night's convection.  The atmosphere was weak to moderately sheared with 25 to 35 kts of shear available.  Downdraft CAPE was in the 1000 to 1200 J/kg range, with 500 to 700 J/kg available in the -10 to -30 C. layer of the atmosphere.  The freezing level was relatively high at 14,100 feet, however the instability was able to overcome this.  A small cluster of thunderstorms formed over west central Iowa and advanced generally east.  One cell became a left-turner and produced hail up to golf ball size as it moved into Carroll County.  There were spotty reports of 60 MPH winds in Crawford and Carroll Counties.
