Des Moines, IA – Northern Iowa is bracing for potential storms today as chances for severe weather persist throughout the day.
According to the US National Weather Service Des Moines, storms are expected to bring heavy rain and high winds to the region. Central and southern Iowa will experience hot and humid conditions, with temperatures reaching the 90s and heat index values nearing 100 degrees. The active weather pattern will continue through the week, with widespread showers and storms likely through Wednesday.
