Periods of Showers and Storms Today

Wet conditions are returning to the region today and into this evening as showers and storms move through Iowa. The highest precipitation chances, ranging from 50% to 80%, are forecast for central and eastern Iowa, with lower probabilities to the north and west. While severe weather is not anticipated, an isolated strong storm could develop. Moderate rainfall may lead to ponding of water on roads and within-bank rises on local rivers and streams. Looking ahead, an active pattern continues next week with additional chances for rainfall and a risk of severe weather.
