The featured map presents the combination of NOAA MRMS precipitation estimates from Sunday through early Tuesday morning and the current US Drought Monitor analysis. This needed precipitation event was thanks to a slow moving front that has swept the state clean of the very warm air that started off October. The map shows that much of the heaviest totals missed the parts of the state presently within a "D0" drought analysis, but the entire state needed rain. Once the showers clear southeastern Iowa later this morning, there are a few chances of light rainfall over the coming days along with warming temperatures.
