941 PM CDT WED MAY 22 2013
LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS CONTINUED TO WRAP AROUND AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE CENTERED OVER SOUTHWEST WISCONSIN. THESE SHOWERS WERE
AFFECTING MAINLY NORTHEAST IOWA WITH A STRAY SHOWER TRACKING
ACROSS CENTRAL IOWA. CLOUDS HELPED KEEP TEMPERATURES FROM FALLING
OFF TOO MUCH AFTER SUNSET...BUT TEMPERATURES WERE STILL
SEASONABLY COOL WITH READINGS IN THE LOW 50S NORTHWEST TO LOW 60S
SOUTHEAST. WINDS WERE GENERALLY FROM THE NORTH IN WESTERN IOWA AND
FROM THE WEST IN EASTERN IOWA.
THE MOST PLEASANT WEATHER FOR THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS LOOKS TO BE ON
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WITH THE REGION SITUATED IN BETWEEN WEATHER
SYSTEMS. SKIES WILL BE MOSTLY CLEAR AND HIGHS WILL BE IN THE MID TO
UPPER 60S. PRECIPITATION WILL OVERSPREAD NEBRASKA FRIDAY AFTERNOON
ALONG A DEVELOPING WARM FRONT AND ADVANCE INTO IOWA ON SATURDAY.
WITH A BLOCKING RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE CAMPED OVER THE EAST
COAST...THE WARM FRONT WILL MEANDER ACROSS IOWA AND MISSOURI INTO
EARLY TO MID NEXT WEEK AND PRODUCE MULTIPLE WAVES OF PRECIPITATION.
PERSISTENT SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL PUMP IN PLENTY OF MOISTURE FROM
THE GULF OF MEXICO TO SUPPORT THIS PROLONGED STRETCH OF RAINFALL.
HIGHS THROUGH MEMORIAL DAY WILL BE BELOW NORMAL WITH READINGS IN THE
MID 60S TO LOWER 70S. TEMPERATURES SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT WILL
RANGE FROM 75 TO 80...BUT IT IS DIFFICULT AT THIS POINT TO KNOW
WHERE THE BOUNDARY WILL END UP. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT FAR SOUTHWEST
OR WESTERN IOWA AND LOCATIONS SOUTH AND WEST WILL SEE THESE KIND
OF HIGHS SUNDAY AND MONDAY BUT MOST OF THE REGION WILL BE IN THE
COOL AIR.
