This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of central Iowa.

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight

Windy conditions and elevated fire weather, especially in
cropland, is forecast on Saturday. Wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph will
be common over western and parts of northern Iowa with a few gusts
over 40 mph possible in these areas. Very high to extreme cropland
fire danger will develop due to the dry cropland and pose a risk
of fast fire spread for any fire starts.

Elevated fire weather conditions for cropland is expected again
Sunday, though winds will be slightly lower at 30-35 mph with
slightly higher minimum RH values in the upper 30s to low 40s.

Chances for thunderstorms return to central Iowa later Sunday
afternoon or Sunday night into early Tuesday, but there is no
strong signal for severe weather.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed.
