 | Title : 3 days of slight risk
 | Date  : 20 Jun 06:54 AM
 | Votes : Good: 21   Bad: 5
 +----------------------------------------------

The Storm Prediction Center has Iowa highlighted in a slight risk for the next 3 days.  The risk is primarily due to the forecasted development of numerous mesoscale convective systems (MCS) that will thrive off of the deep moisture and drive across the state mainly during the night time hours.  This period is also the strongest heating days by the sun, since the days are the longest and the sun is the highest (most direct to ground) in the sky.
