Slight Cool Down

After consecutive days of highs approaching 90 degrees, this mornings' commute was a nice surprise with temperatures much lower. Lows this morning ranged from the lower 50s in northwest Iowa to the upper 60s in the southeast where they remained in the warm sector of the system moving across the state overnight. Todays' highs should be much milder than the past days, ranging from 70 to 80 degrees from northwest to southeast. Temperatures for the rest of the week should be consistent with today, only one precipitation chance currently in the mix on Thursday & Thursday night. That system will come into more detail tomorrow, the next update here will explain the chances that the state actually has for rain. As for high temperatures, upper 60s to mid 70s on Wednesday; Upper 60s to lower 70s on Thursday and finishing off the week with highs back up to the upper 60s to mid 70s. Lows during the rest of the week will also be consistent; ranging tonight from 40-50, upper 40s to lower 50s on Wednesday night. Thursday night brings upper 40s to mid 50s as some moisture returns to the state along with potential cloud cover. Another system Friday night will bring moisture and cloud cover chances again, lows in the 50 to 60 degree range overnight.

Some pictures for the viewing pleasure as well, over the weekend I had a chance to grab some shots of various things. High school track meet on Friday evening gave me a chance to do some more sport shots, G/T Track 2007. A new kitten out on the farm as well, grabbed a couple of shots of it before the mother had enough of me playing with it on Saturday morning; Last two in This Album. Another event Saturday night had me being a part of the photograph, went to the prom, the 4th and last time I will do so. G/T 2007 Prom (I'm in the white coat). Lastly, I'll leave you with a shot of a Robin that I took this weekend as well, enjoy:
