 +----------------------------------------------

Some of you may have hoped that we were done with the cold air for this season, but mother nature has another plan in store.  High temperatures today will struggle into the 30s over Northwest Iowa while Southeast Iowa has already reached their high temperature near 70.  Temperatures will remain below normal all the way to Easter Sunday.
