Des Moines, IA – Iowa could see an isolated chance of severe thunderstorms this afternoon, bringing 60 mph winds and hail.

Weather models indicate that a weak Mesoscale Convective Vortex (MCV) from morning storms may enhance the afternoon storm activity, leading to moderate buoyancy and deep-layer shear around 25 knots. The stronger storms could produce isolated strong gusts exceeding 60 mph and marginally severe hail. This weather activity is expected to diminish by early to mid-evening.

Iowans are advised to monitor weather updates and take necessary precautions as these storms develop.
