A strong upper-level wave across northeastern South Dakota ignited isolated afternoon thunderstorms near a cold front across south central South Dakota. Storms thrived and became briefly supercellular in a highly sheared and unstable environment while tracking eastward south of South Dakota Highway 46 into the early evening.  After a brief decrease in intensity entering Iowa, storms strengthened once again mid to late evening moving east of Cherokee generally along and south of Iowa Highway 3 with a variety of severe weather types.
