A special weather statement has been issued for Greenfield IA, Stuart IA and Anita IA until 1:30 PM CDT
An active weather pattern delivers multiple rounds of rainfall via showers and storms through the middle of the week. Rainfall amounts of 1.5” to 2.5” will be common with locally higher amounts likely. Ponding of water may be observed as well as within bank river rises. #IAwx
🚨🚫 REMINDER: The originally scheduled spotter talk today in 𝘓𝘦𝘰𝘯, 𝘐𝘈 (𝘋𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳 𝘊𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘺) has been 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 due to severe weather potential. Be on the lookout for a possible reschedule in May or June. More info: weather.gov/desmoines/stor… #iawx
Storms develop in western IA by late afternoon and track east through the evening. Some storms will be strong to severe, capable of producing large hail and damaging winds! A few tornadoes are possible as well. Be weather alert and have multiple ways to receive warnings! #IAwx
⛈️Several periods of showers & storms are in the forecast this week, mainly late Tue and again late Wed into late Thu. Mean precip amounts from 1.5-2.5" are expected with highest amounts south. These are mean/average expectations, so locally higher amounts are possible. #iawx
⚠️The potential for severe weather returns to central IA late Tue afternoon into the evening. Large hail, damaging wind, and a few tornadoes are all possible. 🕓Storm chances increase over western IA around 4pm, moving south & east across central IA through 11pm. #iawx
🚨🚫 The originally scheduled spotter talk tomorrow (Tuesday) in 𝘓𝘦𝘰𝘯, 𝘐𝘈 (𝘋𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳 𝘊𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘺) has been 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 due to severe weather potential. Be on the lookout for a possible reschedule in May or June. More info: weather.gov/desmoines/stor… #iawx
📣A quiet start to the week gives us the opportunity to do a spotter talk in Gilbert, IA (Story County). Come visit us at the Gilbert-Franklin Fire Station this evening! For more info, visit weather.gov/desmoines/stor… #iawx #stormspotting
Severe storms will be possible later Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday evening. The main threats are damaging wind gusts and large hail. The secondary threat is a few tornadoes may occur, though there is uncertainty on whether dewpoints will be high enough.
Today will be breezy and dry with a break from the stormy weather. However, storms will return at intervals Tuesday through the end of the week. Tuesday afternoon and evening does bring a chance for severe storms into the state. #iawx
Showers & a few storms continue this afternoon into evening. An isolated severe storm remains possible but cloud cover & showers could limit storm strength. If a stronger storm does occur, the primary threat remains hail but strong wind gusts or a tornado cannot be ruled out.
After a stormy filled weekend, Monday will offer a drier day across Iowa. However, storm chances return later Tuesday into Tuesday night including the chance for severe storms again. Off and on storm chances will continue through at least the end of the week. #iawx
While there will be showers and storms scattered over parts of the state, severe storms may develop between 3p-9p with some uncertainty on if it will. If it does, large hail is the main threat with damaging winds and a few tornadoes secondary threats. #iawx
