April 30 Line of Storms Blow Through
Sunday, May 1, 2022
A line of non-severe storms blew through the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area on Saturday, April 30, 2022. This was a precursor to a larger, "main event" that occurred farther east into Illinois later in the day. Above, the line of storms approaches my spotting location at Noelridge Christian Church in Cedar Rapids from the southwest at 2:55 pm CDT.
2:56 pm. Looking northwest at the approaching gust front, forming a bit of a shelf cloud.
2:58 pm. Gust front almost overtaking me. High wind speeds never exceeded 30-35 mph at this location as the front blew through. Nikon D7200 DSLR camera.
