An intense cyclone moved through the central and northern Plains on Christmas. This brought unusual weather to eastern Nebraska and west central Iowa for late December. Strong southerly winds ahead of the system brought unseasonably warm and moist air northward into the region allowing for non-severe thunderstorms to cross the area early in the day on Christmas. By afternoon, a strong front swept across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa bringing a line of strong thunderstorms. A couple of the thunderstorms were strong enough to produce isolated severe weather with damaging winds. After the passage of the thunderstorms and as the low pressure moved into South Dakota a strong cold front swept through the area with very strong damaging non-thunderstorm winds across northeast Nebraska in west central Iowa. This brought widespread tree and power line damage, as well as some minor structural damage to the area.
