Davenport, Iowa – Raindrops glistened on pavement across the Quad Cities early Sunday as wind carried a sharp chill through Iowa and Illinois neighborhoods. The wet pattern lifts soon, but not without a windy and colder stretch to follow — and the first real hint of frost by midweek.
According to the National Weather Service in the Quad Cities, a weak system exits the region by late morning, leaving behind breezy but drier air. Sunday climbs to a high of 61°F with gusts near 30 mph. Monday brings one last warm push, topping 70°F before another round of cooler, more seasonal air arrives Tuesday with gusty northwest winds.
A brief window of scattered showers may return Monday evening, with a 30% chance of light rain around sunset. After that, skies clear and winds pick up. Tuesday’s high holds near 57°F, but blustery winds up to 30 mph will make it feel colder across exposed roads like US-61 and I-74.
By Wednesday morning, lows dip near 36°F. That’s close enough for some patchy frost in rural low spots or sheltered backyards — gardeners and early commuters should take note. While no snow is expected just yet, models hint at a colder trend into next weekend.
