Thunderstorms have developed in a large cluster over northwest Iowa. These storms are moving rather slowly and are not posing much of a severe weather at this point. We are sitting right along a stationary front, which is where most of these storms will move along. Later this afternoon a few storms are possible, but it looks like the widespread storms and heavy rain will once again be a nocturnal event later tonight. Due to this potential a Flash Flood Watch continues to run for Jo Daviess, Stephenson, and Carroll counties. The rest of the area could be placed under a watch once the storms become more imminent. For the time being we will just be sitting in these sticky conditions playing the waiting game. -ADAM

Iowa probably hasn't had to much sun today since i think its been raining out there for most of the morning anyways. Do you think we could get severe by the time it gets here? I know its horrible outside, i walked to the store and i was dripping almost!
Our severe weather threat is rather low. We could get a couple of isolated severe weather storms out towards the Mississippi River, but overall this just looks like another soaker.
Temperature at Noon: 84°
Dew Point at Noon: 74°
Heat Index: A Sultry 91°
It will be air conditioning for me this afternoon, while Eric sweats over the forecast.

I know i have my air on! I wish this rain would cool things down..I think i'm ready for fall but not winter. I could do with fall like weather all year round with maybe a few times of snow and maybe a few hot days here and there but geez this hot just makes you want to stay in the house!
Yeah, even the rain has been warm. There wasn't even a cool breeze after last night's storms.
