Iowa weather: More frosty mornings ahead with rain chances this weekend

Iowa weather: More frosty mornings ahead with rain chances this weekend
COLD TEMPERATURES WE’VE BEEN EXPERIENCING. IT’S A BIG CHANGE. IT IS A BIG CHANGE. I JUST KEEP THINKING IN MY HEAD. NO NO NO, NO. WELL, YEAH. KILLING ALL THE LITTLE BUGS. GET RID OF THEM. WE’LL HAVE HAPPIER DAYS AHEAD. YEAH. BUT, YEAH, I MEAN, THE DAYS OF THE 80S SEEM TO BE BEHIND US NOW. AND THE FROSTY STARTS TO THE MORNINGS. THEY’RE HERE AND YOU CAN SEE AGAIN THAT AREA HIGHLIGHTED IN PURPLE. THAT IS THE AREA WHERE WE’VE GOT THE POTENTIAL FOR A FREEZE. SOUTH OF THERE, FROSTY CONDITIONS. AND IF THAT’S NOT ENOUGH, WE’LL GO FOR THREE MORNINGS IN A ROW. WE’LL HAVE THAT POTENTIAL FOR FROST AND FREEZE. YOU CAN SEE BY FRIDAY MORNING WE’VE GOT THAT IN PURPLE HERE, MAINLY THROUGH NORTHERN AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE. AND STILL LOOKING AT A FROST THROUGH THE REST OF THE STATE. SO YOUR WIND CHILLS DIPPING BACK DOWN INTO THE 20S. LIKELY GOING TO BE THE COLDEST MORNING WE’VE HAD SINCE AROUND APRIL 5TH. SO YEAH, THE COLD AIR IS SETTLING ITS WAY ON IN, AND THOSE WIND CHILLS AS WE HEAD INTO FRIDAY LOOK JUST AS CHILLY IN THE MIDDLE 20S THROUGH NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE. SO IF YOU’RE HEADED OUT TONIGHT, HIGHS TOMORROW. HONESTLY, IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD. IT’S GOING TO BE ABOUT 20 DEGREES COLDER THAN WE WERE THIS TIME LAST WEEK FOR NIGHT EYES. 54 DEGREES AT 6 P.M. WE’LL SEE THAT TAPER BACK INTO THE MID TO UPPER 40S BY 9 P.M. SO DRESS WARM. I KNOW A LOT OF THOSE COSTUMES ARE WARM ANYWAY, BUT YOU WANT TO LAYER UP A LITTLE BIT OUT THERE AND WE LOOK AT OUR FORECAST AGAIN TOMORROW. WE’VE GOT FROST WITH SUNNY SKIES. SUNNY SKIES ON FRIDAY. AND THEN WE COULD SEE SOME ISOLATED SHOWER ACTIVITY, MAINLY THROUGH SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE SATURDAY, AND POSSIBLY EVEN SUNDAY TOO. WE HUG THAT AVERAGE OF 60 DEGREES THOUGH FOR A BIT HERE ALL THE WAY THROUGH MONDAY. WE’LL BRING IN THAT CHANCE FOR MORE SHOWERS, MORE SUBSTANTIAL SHOWERS THAT WILL LIKELY CONTINUE OVER INTO TUESDAY WITH TEMPERATURES BACK IN THE MIDDLE 50S BY THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. SO TRACKING THINGS OUT FOR YOU. A LITTLE BIT OF CLOUD COVER OUT THERE FOR YOUR THURSDAY. NOT TALKING ABOUT ANYTHING MORE SUBSTANTIAL THAN THAT. AS WE PUSH OUR WAY INTO FRIDAY, CLOUDS WILL BE BUILDING THEIR WAY IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THAT MAY KEEP SOME OF THOSE AREAS TO THE SOUTHWEST OUT OF THE FROST ZONE, AS THAT WILL KEEP THAT INSULATED. AND WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S. AND THEN WE BRING IN A LITTLE BIT OF MOISTURE. AREAS LIKE LAMONI, CENTERVILLE, RATHBUN LAKE ALL THE WAY EAST TOWARDS FORT MADISON, WE’LL HAVE A CHANCE AT A SHOWER OR TWO, AND THAT WILL BECOME A LITTLE BIT MORE CONCENTRATED AT THE SOUTHEASTERN PORTION OF THE STATE AND SLIGHTLY MORE ROBUST INTO SATURDAY MORNING. SO YOUR 12 HOUR FORECAST FOR TOMORROW LOOKING CHILLY TO START. WE’RE AT 35 AT 7 A.M., PUSHING BACK INTO THE UPPER 50S TO LOW 60S BY THE AFTERNOON WITH SUNNY SKIES. AND I KNOW WE’VE HAD A BREEZE THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. TOMORROW THAT’S OUT OF HERE, SO IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE COOL OUT THERE TO START THE DAY, BUT AT LEAST WE WON’T BE TALKING ABOUT A HUGE WIND CHILL. 60 FOR THE METRO, 57 FOR ALGONA. GRINNELL COMING IN AT 58, AND YOUR EIGHT DAY FORECAST AGAIN HOVERING AROUND 60 FOR A BIT WITH MORE CHANCES FOR RAIN AS WE KICK OFF NEXT WE
