The windshift line that moved into the state the previous night continued to make slow progress to the southeast.  Afternoon temperatures ahead of it reached the 90s, with dewpoint readings in the mid 60s.  The atmosphere was very weakly sheared with around 20 kts of shear.  CAPE was in the 1000 to 2000 J/kg range with downdraft CAPE around 1200 J/kg.  CAPE in the -10 to -30 C layer of the atmosphere was 300 to 700 J/kg.  The LCL level was quite high, around 2000 meters.  Thunderstorms were of the pulse type variety, developing both on the windshift line and on residual outflow boundaries.  One of the storms produced pea to quarter size hail in the Marshalltown area.  Another dropped quarter size hail in the Boone area of Boone County.  As thunderstorms continued to spread and intensify, a microburst wind of 69 MPH was recorded at the Creston Airport.

One hundred plus acre wildfire in fields near Osceola.
A persistent ridge of high pressure across the region produced warmer than normal temperatures and below normal rainfall during the month of July. Mean temperatures for the month were 4 to 7 degrees above normal. Rainfall for the month totaled only around an inch or less which was about 3 to 5 inches below normal. This caused the drought that began in June to worsen and expand across eastern Iowa, northwest and western Illinois and extreme northeast Missouri. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, extreme northeast Missouri was in a D2 severe drought on July 3, 2012. By the 10th of July, the severe drought category also included much of eastern Iowa roughly north of Interstate 80, and northwest Illinois north of Highway 30. On July 17, the Drought Monitor classified all of eastern Iowa, northwest and western Illinois and extreme northeast Missouri as severe drought. However, due to the persistent heat and lack of rainfall the drought continued to worsen. By the last week of July, the entire region was either in a D2 severe or D3 extreme drought. Crops were showing stress due to the heat and reduced crop yields were being noted. Because the severe to extreme drought continued into August exact damage amounts to the crops are not known at this time.
