One More Cool Day...

The past couple of days have been considerably cooler than weeks previous, with highs only in the 70s for most of the state and lows dropping down into the 50s. Today looks to be similar, but this should be the last day that this occurs as we look to enter the weekend with rising temperatures and increasing moisture.

Today will feature some clouds across the state, with isolated thunderstorms also being possible in southern Iowa. Highs will be in the upper 70s and lower 80s for most of the state, given that it may be cool today when underneath clouds. Lows tonight should once again be in the 50s across the state...

Friday will begin the warm-up for the weekend, clear skies will allow for temperatures in the upper 70s over northeast Iowa; while 80s should occur over the remainder of the state. Lows will be on the rise as well for Friday night, with lows in the upper 50s and lower 60s across the state with increased moisture. With the weekend, as mentioned the temperature will rise quickly into a more summer-like feel. Highs expected in the lower 80s in northeast, with upper 80s possible in western and southern Iowa. The same expected on Sunday, with just a few degrees added on; especially in western Iowa. Lows during the weekend expected in the upper 50s to mid 60s from east to west on Saturday night, however by Sunday with moisture continuing to come into the state and the warm daytime temperatures the low should only drop into the lower to mid 60s. Expect the warm temperatures to continue into the work week, with some chances of rain in the forecast; a much welcome site to most of the state.
