Fortunately, these will be of the generic non-severe variety. Otherwise morning lows will primarily be in the 60s, with coolest areas over eastern to northeast Iowa. Clearing skies and increasing southerly winds will help push temperatures back up into the 80s over western into central Iowa, which may also set the table for some strong to severe storm chance by mid-afternoon and into the evening hours. Main risks with the strongest storms will be damaging winds and large hail. A tornado or two may be possible as well, along with isolated heavy rainfall amounts to around 2 inches. Tonight and beyond: The aforementioned storms this afternoon and evening will taper off by mid to late evening, giving way to a quiet and cool weekend. Expect weekend highs in the 70s to mid 80s Saturday and 70s Sunday. Shower and storm chances then return over the first half of the week, with potential for some stronger storms Monday and Monday night. Additional chances for showers and storms exist at times through the week, with uncertainty in timing and coverage at this point in time. While precipitation uncertainty exists, temperatures are expected to rise after Monday. Tuesday may be the warmest day of the upcoming week with current forecast highs into the upper 80s to 90 or so. Depending on shower chances and cloud cover through the week, high temperatures may vary a bit but are largely forecast in the 80s at this point in time. $$
