Weather Summary for Iowa
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
525 PM CST Sun Nov 20 2016

It is a cool and dry evening across the region. Winds are from the
east to southeast at 10 mph. Since sunset temperatures have begun to
fall into the lower 30s northeast to lower 40s southwest beneath clear
skies.

Monday will be similar to today but a few degrees warmer, with highs
ranging generally in the 40s. The next in a series of storm systems
will then cross the region between Monday night and Wednesday morning,
bringing thick clouds and widespread precipitation. Most of this
precipitation will fall as rain, with amounts of around half an inch
in some areas. However, during the late night and early morning hours
each day a wintry mix or light snow may occur, mainly across northern
Iowa, with light snow or ice accumulations possible.

The first storm system will exit to the east by late Wednesday, but
another will come right on its heels between Thursday afternoon and
Friday morning. The precipitation associated with this second system
will likely begin as light rain during the daylight hours, then change
to snow from north to south after sunset. This may have some impact on
Thanksgiving travel and shopping plans in some parts of the state. No
 significant warming is seen within the next week, and even by next 
weekend forecast highs are only in the lower 40s north to lower 50s 
south.
