WEATHER SUMMARY FOR IOWA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
452 PM CST WED NOV 4 2015

SUNSHINE AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WERE PRESENT ACROSS THE
REGION ONCE AGAIN FOR OUR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. NORMAL HIGHS FOR
THIS TIME OF YEAR ARE IN THE MID 50S AND TEMPERATURES WERE AROUND
10 TO 15 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. AT 4 PM...DES MOINES HAD A
TEMPERATURE OF 65 DEGREES...WATERLOO HAD A TEMPERATURE OF
63...AND IT WAS 70 DEGREES IN LA CROSSE...WISCONSIN. WINDS WERE
ON THE SLIGHTLY BREEZY SIDE...BLOWING FROM THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST
AT 15 TO 25 MPH.

A POTENT AREA OF LOW PRESSURE HAS BEEN GEARING UP TO MOVE INTO THE
MIDWEST FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS AND IT APPEARS THIS LOW SHOULD BE
IMPACTING THE REGION BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON. THERE IS A CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF IOWA FOR THURSDAY AFTERNOON. A FEW
OF THESE STORMS MAY BE STRONG TO SEVERE...WITH A BRIEF TORNADO THE
MAIN THREAT. AHEAD OF THIS LOW...WINDS WILL REMAIN FROM THE SOUTH.
THIS MEANS TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL ONCE AGAIN.
HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S FOR MUCH OF THE
REGION ON THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL BE FROM THE SOUTH TO
SOUTHWEST AT AROUND 15 TO 25 MPH.

BEHIND THIS LOW...MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL BE BROUGHT INTO
THE REGION...ENDING OUR STREAK OF ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES. HIGHS
FOR FRIDAY INTO THIS WEEKEND WILL BE IN THE 50S AND LOWS WILL BE
IN THE 30S. HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE IN TOWARDS THE END OF THE
WEEKEND WHICH SHOULD KEEP US DRY. AS OF NOW...IT APPEARS THE NEXT
BEST CHANCE FOR WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION IS NOT UNTIL THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK. TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY WARM UP TO ABOVE NORMAL
LEVELS BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
