Davenport, IA – Warm and humid conditions will kick off the work week across eastern Iowa and western Illinois, with forecasters warning of isolated storm chances through Thursday.
According to the US National Weather Service Quad Cities, most areas will stay dry Monday and Tuesday, but pockets of isolated showers and storms are possible, especially west of Highway 218 in Iowa. Temperatures are expected to climb into the upper 80s and low 90s through midweek, with heat lingering until Wednesday.
The best chance for widespread rain arrives Wednesday night as a cold front sweeps through the Mississippi River Valley. The system could bring scattered showers and thunderstorms, marking the area’s highest precipitation risk in more than a week. Storm coverage is expected to range from 20 to 30 percent by midweek.
By Thursday, cooler air will settle into the region, with highs dropping into the upper 70s to low 80s. While storm chances remain possible Thursday afternoon, drier and more comfortable weather is forecast heading into the weekend.
Residents across the Quad Cities region and eastern Iowa are advised to monitor forecasts for updated storm chances, particularly Wednesday night when travel impacts may be more widespread.
