Strong storms moved through portions of Iowa during the overnight hours, dropping large hail, damaging winds, and even a report of a tornado. These storms have since moved out of the state, however, another line of storms is ongoing across portions of southeast Iowa with the threat of large hail and damaging winds. Montgomery and Adams counties are currently under a severe thunderstorm warning due to the threat of quarter sized hail and damaging winds in excess of 60 mph. Expect these storms to continue to the east/southeast during the morning hours, a severe thunderstorm watch is in effect until 2 PM for portions of southern Iowa.
Additional thunderstorms are likely to develop this afternoon across the southern two-thirds of the state. These storms are likely to have the threat of severe weather, as even portions of the state are under a moderate risk today. The biggest risk with todays' storms will be damaging winds and large hail, however, a tornado or two may be possible with some of the storms, especially for southeast Iowa.
Highs for your Fathers' Day will range from the upper 70s to the mid 80s from north to southeast. Lows tonight from the mid 50s to near 60 from north to south as well. More updates are possible this afternoon, but please stay alert with local media for the threat of severe weather. This is especially true for those that are outside for the Fathers' Day celebration...
