A line of heavy thunderstorms swept across central Iowa early Sunday morning, accompanied by high winds and heavy rain. There are numerous reports of trees and power lines down in the Des Moines area and outlying communities. Wind gusts of 60 to 70 miles per hour accompanied the storm as it moved through Des Moines around three o'clock Sunday morning. Several large trees fell in the 1800 block of 74th street in Windsor Heights, blocking the street. "It was crazy. It felt like we were in the middle of a hurricane when it hit," said Jeff Burnham of Windsor Heights. Laurence Jolly of Des Moines said he couldn't even see across the street because of the heavy rain. "It was blowing so much," he said. Windsor Heights residents were asked to put their debris curbside and crews would pick it up on Wednesday morning. Wind also stripped the awning from a Casey's General Store in Ankeny. No injuries were reported in the storm. Wide-spread power outage Power is out in a number of areas. Mid-American Energy reports 38,000 customers without power in the Des Moines area at 6:30 a.m. Sunday. About 22,000 of those are in Des Moines. Another 300 are without power in Ankeny, about 6,000 in Urbandale, 2,300 in West Des Moines and 1,200 are without power in Johnston. Mid-American Energy spokesman Mark Reinders estimates it could take 36 hours to restore power to all affected customers in the Des Moines area. Reinders says the utility will bring in work crews from outside the metro area to assist in restoring electrical service to everyone by noon on Monday. Reinders says the damage is widespread and that as homeowners wake up Sunday morning and see downed power lines, they should "assume the wire is live" and call 911 or Mid-American to report the downed line. Central Iowa firefighters are out in force Sunday morning responding to reports of power lines igniting fires. Traffic lights are out at a number of locations in Des Moines.
