Rainfall was frequent throughout the month. This made it difficult to make hay and also caused further delays in planting in southern Iowa where some soybean acres remain unplanted at month’s end.

Deaths and injuries are direct and indirect together, as the offices filed them. Damage is property and crops in the dollars of the year, not adjusted for inflation, and only where an office estimated it.
The episode as NWS DMX wrote it up.
Rainfall was frequent throughout the month. This made it difficult to make hay and also caused further delays in planting in southern Iowa where some soybean acres remain unplanted at month’s end. Rainfall amounts were well above normal over southeastern Iowa, as has been the case for much of the year. Columbus Junction reported an unofficial June total of 12.41 inches of rain, including a five inch downpour on the 21st. Flooding, however, was much less widespread than in 2008 thanks to drier and warmer antecedent conditions this year. Heavy rainfall during the period from the 16th to the 19th caused river levels to rise. Flooding was reported along Cedar Creek, and the North River. In addition, two mainstem rivers flooded. Both the South Skunk and Des Moines Rivers overtopped their banks. Much of the flooding was limited to agricultural lands.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Des Moines, IA wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 18, 5:16 AM CST, 1 hour 37 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA 616 AM CDT THU JUN 18 2009 ...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION... .DISCUSSION... MULTIPLE CONVECTIVE EVENTS ARE THE OBVIOUS FOCUS THIS MORNING. CURRENT SITUATION HAS 100-130KT JET TOPPING CENTRAL CONUS RIDGE. RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF MAX WINDS THROUGH MI HELPED FEED OUR EXITING MCS. NEXT SHORT WV MOVED OUT OF CO INTO NE OVERNIGHT AND IS PRESENTLY DRIVING THAT MCS. EXPECT THIS COMPLEX TO KEEP ON ROLLING INTO IA THIS MORNING. KINEMATIC FORCING SUSTAINS WITH HELP FROM AXIS OF THETA-E ADVECTION FROM NE INTO IA...ALONG WITH ELEVATED FRONTOGENETICAL FORCING WITH BACLIN ZONE ALOFT. MOISTURE CONVERGENCE ALONG 310K SFC SUGGESTS THIS AS WELL. EXTREME ELEVATED INSTABILITY AVAILABLE WITH 3-4K CAPES AND LITTLE CIN IN PLACE THROUGH AT LEAST 15Z. EFFECTIVE SHEAR 50 PLUS KTS ALONG BACLIN ZN SO WOULD NOT BE AT ALL SURPRISED TO SEE MCS STRENGTHEN AS IT ENTERS IA. SHOULD THEN SEE A LULL THROUGH MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON AS WARM TEMPS AND EML BUILD INTO IA A LA THE SPC DAY 1 OUTLOOK. 09Z SFC ANLYS PLACES SYNOPTIC FRONT FROM ERN NE ALONG IA/MO BORDER WHICH SHOULD SURGE NWD INTO STATE AS CAP TEMPORARILY BUILDS. CONVERGENCE ZONE IS EXPECTED TO THEN BE ACROSS NRN IA BY END OF PEAK HEATING. WITH MLCAPES IN EXCESS OF 4K J/KG...STRONG DEEP SHEAR AND MORE THAN ADEQUATE SHALLOW SHEAR CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY... TORNADIC SUPERCELLS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP QUICKLY ONCE IT GOES HENCE SVR WORDING IN ZONES. UNLIKE PRESENT SITUATION...VEERING LLJ MAY PUSH MCS OUT OF AREA LATER TONIGHT. HOWEVER FORCING AHEAD OF NRN PLAINS THROUGH EXPECTED TO DEVELOP YET ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION WITH FROPA ON FRI BEFORE ENDING HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. WITH AIRMASS JUICED...HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING POSSIBLE BUT SECONDARY THREAT TO SVR. BETTER HEAVY RAINS CHANCES ARE NORTH...BUT THIS AREA CAN TAKE MORE RAIN AS WELL. NO CHANGES TO FORECAST FOR WEEKEND AND BEYOND. WE CERTAINLY HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO WARM UP GREATLY TODAY...BUT STAYED JUST BELOW PERSISTENCE DUE TO APPROACHING MCS. THIS WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED HOWEVER. EXPECT ANOTHER WARM AND MUGGY NIGHT TONIGHT WITH FAIRLY SEASONAL TEMPS AND RELATIVELY DRIER CONDITIONS FOR THE WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY SAT. && .AVIATION...18/12Z BRIEF MVFR CIGS/BR VSBYS POSSIBLE AT KMCW/KALO FOR THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. THEREAFTER...THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE SOLE PRODUCER OF SUB-VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE TAF PERIODS. CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN MOIST AND VERY UNSTABLE ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. ONE ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL ROLL ACROSS NORTHERN IOWA THIS MORNING...AND APPEAR ON TRACK TO IMPACT KMCW WITH POTENTIALLY SEVERE WEATHER AROUND 14-15Z. IF THE STORMS DO TRACK TO KMCW THERE WILL BE HIGH WIND GUSTS...VERY HEAVY RAIN AND LOW CIGS...AND POSSIBLY HAIL. THIS WILL BE REFLECTED IN A TEMPO GROUP ON THE 12Z TAFS. ONCE THESE STORMS CROSS NORTHERN IOWA IT WILL BE RELATIVELY QUIET FOR THE REST OF THE MORNING INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON AS WE WILL BE CAPPED. HOWEVER...LATER IN THE DAY THE CAP WILL LIKELY BREAK WITH THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING...ESPECIALLY FURTHER NORTH AND EAST AT KMCW AND KALO. DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES IN TIMING OF THE CAP BREAKING AS WELL AS LOCATION OF STORMS...WILL INCLUDE TEMPOS AT KMCW/KALO WHERE LATE AFTERNOON STORMS ARE LIKELIEST BUT OTHERWISE STICK WITH VCTS ATTM. && .DMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && BSS/FAB/LEE
