Thanks to a boundary slicing northwest to southeast across Iowa today, we saw a decent variation in temperatures, cloud cover, and rainfall across the state.
That boundary still could interact with any storms that find their way to it, leading to a funnel cloud or two. The likelihood of this diminishes once we reach sunset. Tonight, any remaining showers & storms will drift through northern Iowa toward Minnesota, leaving the state entirely after midnight.
Tomorrow, clouds will sweep back into northern Iowa, swirling around a low-pressure center lumbering from Nebraska into Minnesota. A few afternoon showers are possible as well in northern Iowa. This will be bad news for anyone north of Hwy. 30 wanting to view the solar eclipse. Farther south, skies look sunnier. Some high-level cirrus clouds might spread in from Missouri during the afternoon, but these should be thin enough to see through.
Monday's temperatures will range from the 50s north to upper 60s south.
Both Monday and Tuesday will still be a little windy, with gusts around 25-30 mph.
Wednesday is when the breeze dies down again – temporarily. Winds pick up once more Thursday when a system sweeps by Iowa, bringing another chance for showers to the state.
