Weather Summary for Iowa
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
414 AM CDT Fri May 3 2024

Today:

Lingering clouds and light showers have moved out of Iowa and skies
are clear early this morning, except that areas of fog have developed
and are reducing visibility to below a quarter of a mile at some
locations. This will persist until the fog dissipates after sunrise
later this morning. Temperatures are hovering in the upper 30s and 40s
and winds are light and variable.

Once the morning fog burns off it will be a mostly sunny and quiet
day, with temperatures peaking around the lower 70s this afternoon.
Winds will come around to the southeast during the day and increase
to around 10 mph.

Tonight and beyond:

Showers and thunderstorms are expected to spread across Iowa from west
to east tonight, mainly after midnight, before departing eastern Iowa
late Saturday. A few of these storms may produce hail or gusty winds
in southern Iowa, but the overall severe weather threat is low.
Saturday will also be a bit cooler with highs in the lower 60s north
to lower 70s southeast, and northwest winds around 15 mph and gusty
during the afternoon.

Thunderstorm chances will return from around Monday afternoon into
Tuesday, and severe weather may be possible once again but this threat
will be evaluated in the coming days. The early part of next week
also appears milder, with high temperatures both Monday and Tuesday in
the mid to upper 70s in most areas.
