This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southwest
Iowa...west central Iowa...east central Nebraska...northeast

.DAY ONE...Sunday Afternoon Through Monday

Very high to extreme fire danger is expected on Monday as

southwest winds gusting up to 35 mph, while minimum humidity
drops to 10 to 16 percent.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday night through Sunday

There is a small chance for a strong to severe storm to develop
