Weather Summary for Iowa
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
342 AM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024

Today:

Early morning radar imagery shows two different areas of light
rainfall impacting the state. The first area is associated with a
weak disturbance moving over far southeast Iowa, while another area
of precipitation is moving into northwest Iowa in concert with
approaching low pressure system. In between, skies are partly to
mostly cloudy with temperatures ranging from the mid 40s to low 60s.
Patchy fog has also developed, dropping visibility to a mile or less
in a few locations.

Isolated to scattered shower activity continues through the day,
mainly over the western into central Iowa. Afternoon highs will be
similar to Monday and top out around 70 degrees under partly to
mostly cloudy skies.

Tonight and Beyond:

The forecast dries out through the middle of the week as sunshine
helps push high temperatures back into the mid to upper 70s.
Precipitation chances increase late week and into the weekend as
moisture from a remnant tropical system is pulled north and west
into the region. Considerable uncertainty remains at this time range
due to the unusual pattern evolution expected, however the most
likely areas to see rainfall will be over the southeastern half of
the state.
