Newton vs North Polk in Alleman is tonight's Friday Night Blitz Game of the Week! Kickoff temps in the low 60s, falling through the 50s. Expect a bit of a northwest breeze. Bring the blankets and the hoodies. This is football weather in mid-season form! #IAWX
Temps Saturday and Sunday mornings will be drifting towards record low territory. Temps like this are typically reserved more for the middle of October rather than early September. #IAWX #Brr #RecordLow #DSM #DesMoines
Air quality has taken a hit today from wildfire smoke from the Pacific Northwest and Southwest Canada. Those that are sensitive to the lowering may experience from respiratory issues. Improvement should occur through the day tomorrow as the band of smoke pushes southward. #IAWX
Cold front is working across NW Iowa with a bit of rain along it. Most of the rain stays north, but everyone will get in on the uptick in wind and cooler temperatures behind it. Gusts to 25-30 mph tonight. #IAWX #DesMoines #DSM
Rain and rumbles will exit through southern Iowa through 11 AM. Some lingering showers will continue into the afternoon, but the heaviest rain will be behind us. Call out your rain totals in the comments! We're building a list to share!
A murky view of departing storms over the Des Moines metro. A pop of rain and lightning right at the morning commute which slowed down some traffic. Otherwise a bit of welcomed rain. #IAWX
Storm over Dallas County is in a weakening state. Rain & Rumbles descending on the Des Moines metro for the morning commute. Yellow Flag is out through 9 AM. Take things slow, use those headlights. There will be downpours and maybe even some small hail on the trip in. #IAWX
A Severe Thunderstorm Warning is in effect until Sep 03 7:30AM for Dallas, Guthrie, Greene Co. #iawx
A Severe Thunderstorm Warning is in effect until Sep 03 6:45AM for Webster, Boone, Calhoun, Greene Co. #iawx
A cold front pushing in Wednesday morning brings some rain, cooler air &... smoke. We'll have hazy skies on the horizon as a result of this smoke from wildfires in NW U.S. and SW Canada. The worst of it should be Wednesday night before improving. Some will be surface based #IAWX
Some rain up around the MN/IA border. A bit will make it into central Iowa but most will hug the north/northeast side of the state. Minimal severe risk with this activity. More on the way tonight into Tuesday morning. Redevelopment is expected over southern Minnesota. #IAWX
The Powerball estimated Jackpot for Saturday's drawing is now at $1 Billion! The odds of winning are 1 in 292 Million. Now look at the odds vs some deadly weather phenomena. Far more likely than winning the #Powerball Jackpot. Still feeling lucky? #NeverTellMeTheOdds!
It's Week 1 of High School Football across Iowa. Tonight's Friday Night Blitz Game of the Week is Norwalk vs Indianola. Temps near 80° at kickoff with a few clouds and barely there breeze Don't forget to catch highlights and interviews of the game on Friday Night Blitz at 10:30!
Some weak funnels forming as new cells build across north IA. Usually, these funnels are very brief, weak and extend slightly down from the bottom of the clouds. The threat for tornadoes is extremely low this evening. If you're lucky you'll get a menacing sight and a bit of rain.
Slow moving front finally dips into Iowa for Thursday. Showers & storms up along MN border now. A stray popup shower or t-storm after 5 PM on Thursday is possible in central Iowa, but only a select few will see. Temperatures still in the 80s Thur, dipping upper 70s for Fri #IAWX
Temps dipped well back overnight. Carroll ended up the coolest at 43°! We'll set our recent chilly ways aside for now in favor of some moderation in the forecast. You can still keep those windows open overnight though! #IAWX
