This morning around Des Moines, Iowa, one storm system brought several hazards at once: ⚡ Lightning detected nearby 🌧️ Heavy rainfall on radar 🌊 Flood Watch and Flood Warning in effect 💧 3.18 inches of observed rainfall 🏞️ Fourmile Creek at minor flood stage 🔌 More than 500 customers without power in Polk County This is the part of severe weather people sometimes miss. It is not always one hazard. A thunderstorm can produce lightning, damaging wind, flooding rainfall, rising creeks, travel issues, and power outages all within the same event. The screenshots below show that chain of impacts in real time. Stay weather aware today, especially across areas dealing with repeated rounds of storms. #SevereWeather #Flooding #Lightning #WeatherAwareness #EmergencyManagement #NimboStratusAI
