⚡️⚠️ A little "heads up" about Monday. While still a couple days out and still uncertain on exact timing, there will still be a threat for a few severe storms, especially across eastern NE/western IA by later afternoon and evening. Keep up on the latest forecast!

Sunny skies & seasonably warm temperatures this weekend will help to dry things out after our recent rains. In this satellite image, we can see the remnants of the rain from last night moving off to the east over IA & MN. We also see cumulus clouds popping up all over the region.

Another round of rain is on the way later today and overnight. While amounts generally remain near/less than 0.5" for most, rainfall totals closer to an inch are possible across portions of NW IA. This may renew minor flooding/ponding issues where higher amounts occurs.

Here are two maps comparing 24 hour rainfall totals. The shaded map is the totals based off radar estimates. The map with points is CoCoRaHS rain gauge reports. They are fairly close with a few outliers in the gauge map. How much was in your rain gauge? Let us know!

Current radar shows heavier showers lifting out northeastern NE. These heavy showers will track across northwestern IA during the late night hours, and could bring rainfall of 1 to 1.5" by Thursday morning. This could lead to ponding of water across the area.
