It will be mostly sunny and quiet today, with high temperatures in the lower 70s for the most part. Showers and thunderstorms will then spread from west to east across Iowa later tonight, mainly after midnight, into Saturday morning before clearing out. A few of the storms may produce hail or gusty winds across southern Iowa, but overall the threat of severe weather is low. Additional thunderstorm chances are forecast early next week, mainly from late Monday into Tuesday, but any severe weather potential during that time will be evaluated in the coming days.
