Cool Weather with Chance of Storms

We're talking storm chances, so we might as well start with the one later today. A "cool" front will pass through the area later today, not doing much temperature-wise over the next few days, but will allow for the chance of some widely scattered showers and maybe even a thunderstorm throughout the afternoon into the evening. With drier air finally here after the sweltering weekend, this rain chance will ring out little if any rain.

Tomorrow looks like a nice, sunny, dry day without any chances of rain in the forecast. Get out and enjoy it if you can before the summer is up!

Wednesday through Thursday comes in our next best chance of rain over the next few days. A strong cold front will push in from the north, bringing with it the chance of showers and thunderstorms, especially Wednesday Night into Thursday. Moisture from the south will likely surge into the system, bringing back the chances of heavy downpours and a chance of severe weather. The area is under a Slight Risk for Severe Storms for Wednesday, bringing with it large hail and damaging winds, even a few tornadoes early on in storm formation. As the day gets closer, we'll know more about the threat, but the main threat right now looks to be over Iowa.


Wednesday's Slight Risk of Severe Storms
