Tropical Storm Isaac continues to pound the southern plains with heavy rain and strong winds. The size of these storms is sometimes difficult to imagine for those of us who have lived in Iowa their entire life. So what better way to illustrate the size of Isaac than to move the storm here for comparison! The featured map moves Isaac as depicted on RADAR yesterday morning to Iowa with its eye near Des Moines. The size of this storm is certainly comprehensible as nearly the entire state is engulfed by it! The remnants of Isaac may actually make it to Iowa in a few days, but its form will look much different than this.
