After the 2011 Drought peaked on June 21st, a weak upper level disturbance aided the development and maintenance of a squall line from central into South Texas overnight on the 21st/22nd.  Boundaries from the line activated deep atmospheric moisture toward the coast and produced numerous late morning through afternoon thunderstorms which stretched into Willacy and Kenedy County on the 22nd.  A few more storms would arrive on the 23rd.  In all, 2 to 6 inches of rain fell across the area.  Incorporated into the Drought Monitor on the 28th, these rains improved the drought by one category.
Further improvements would arrive in July after another round of heavy rainfall from the outer bands of Tropical Storm Arlene on June 30th.

Relatively dry weather prevailed for the first week of June allowing the completion of nearly of all of the corn and soybean planting.   However, rainfall was frequent and sometimes excessive from the 8th through the 22nd.   Heaviest rains fell over northern Warren County on the 9th-10th with an unofficial two-day total of 9.31 inches just south of Norwalk.   Rainfall frequently was heaviest over south central and southeast Iowa with record totals for any month set at Keosauqua (16.14 inches, old record 14.89 in June 1905 among 123 years of data) and at Bloomfield (14.60 inches, old record 14.31 in August 1970 among 92 years of records).   Meanwhile rainfall was less than normal over much of northeastern Iowa where Cresco reported their driest June since 1989 with only 2.39 inches of rain.  The first round of heavy rainfall brought flooding to central into southeast Iowa, though the flooding was not extreme with the first heavy rainfall event with the exception of the Norwalk, Indianola, and Bussey areas where the heaviest rainfall was centered.  The river flooded several feet above flood stages in these areas.  Downstream, along the Des Moines River, flooding began in Eddyville and Ottumwa.  For the purposes of documentation, the subsequent crests are contained in this period, though they did go below flood stage intermittently.  There reason for not trying to separate these two sites is because the river level is nearly totally controlled by Red Rock Reservoir.

An upper level disturbance leading a cool front into Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley sparked numerous showers and thunderstorms, some with heavy rainfall and gusty winds, across the South Texas Plains around noon on May 12th.

The line accelerated through Brooks County, producing 1.5 to more than 2 inches of rain in about an hour before surging toward the coast by late afternoon.
