Merely a Dust Settler

Today's rainmaker will be nothing more than a "dust settler". We should be able to squeeze out just enough raindrops to settle the dust across the Stateline and that is about it. As of 9am, a few light showers and sprinkles were falling over eastern Iowa. This sparse activity will be moving through the region late this morning and into the afternoon hours. Rainfall totals will range from a trace to just a few hundreths of an inch. The image to the left is a 6 hour precipitation estimate between 1pm and 7pm today from the GFS model. As you can see, it shows the heavy rainfall will be staying well to the south of us. -ADAM
