Inclusion of Iowa tornado outbreak of July 2018

Both the NTSB Marine Accident Report (page 31) and the National Weather Service July 19, 2018 Table Rock Lake, Missouri Derecho (page 50) concluded the weather event that caused the boat accident was a violent and significant derecho weather event. There is no mention of the Iowa tornado outbreak mentioned in either official report.

I removed the 'Iowa tornado outbreak' content per WP:VERIFY - any material whose verifiability has been challenged ... must include an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the material. Isaidnoway (talk) 17:53, 9 April 2023 (UTC) [reply]

SUMMARY OF DERECHO EVENT FROM BOTH NTSB AND NWS REPORTS

In summary: On July 19, 2018, a violent derecho developed in eastern Kansas and swept through southwest Missouri causing considerable damage along its path with over 115 instances of severe weather winds or wind damage.

On July 19, 2018, a significant derecho event occurred over southern Missouri resulting in wind gusts over 70 mph over much of southwest Missouri and the Table Rock Lake region.

The severe weather that impacted Table Rock Lake on the evening of July 19 was a convective weather system called a “derecho.”

The National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center, which monitors non-severe and severe thunderstorm threats across the contiguous United States, concluded that the derecho impacting the accident site covered 473 miles (from north-central Kansas to northern Arkansas) and lasted for 9 hours 24 minutes. Figure 14 depicts the progression of the storm system in a mosaic of edited radar images.
