Iowa precipitation totals: See where the heaviest rain fell overnight
Most of the state avoided torrential rains, but many states were soaked again.
A little bit, but this morning we’re already having fireworks in the lock. Yeah, a lot of lightning with the showers and thunderstorms, a lot of heavy rain. But it’s starting to build up in the less impressive area. As far as what we saw earlier this morning, a lot of heavy rain. Again, that flash flood warning. I can’t stress that enough. Turn around. Don’t drown. That’s Adair County, northern Adams County, and Cass County. But we’re watching this move from west to east and again, it’s starting to break up. Just a little bit more. THIS HEAVIER RAIN, IT’S RAINING IN INDIANOLA, AND IN THE METRO RIGHT NOW, I’M GOING TO ZOOM IN HERE IN A MOMENT. BUT EVEN FROM NEWTON TO SHERIDAN SEEING THIS BAND OF HEAVY RAIN, WITH ASSOCIATED LIGHTNING, NOT SEVERE AT THAT TIME, WE’RE NOT LOOKING AT THE THREAT OF A TORNADO. LARGE HAIL OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IT COULD BE A LITTLE FAST. MAYBE EVEN PEA SIZE HAIL, BUT IT’S NOT GOING TO BE DESTRUCTIVE. BUT EVEN AS YOU GET INTO THE METRO NOW, IT’S STILL GOING TO BE MORE MODERATE RAIN. But even further west, it starts getting closer to the WAUKEE area, at least becoming more of that light rain. And that’s going to make it a little less impressive. And I hope you don’t see as much puddles on the roads and highways across the state even further out, east of I-35, further north again, those heavy rains over Marshalltown, but further over Ames starting to taper off a little bit more. And especially Grand Junction is moving further west. Let’s talk about rainfall totals. The most impressive place in the state is the one I’m highlighting right now. THAT’S JUST BECAUSE, AGAIN, IT’S THE FLASH FLOOD WARNING. THE REASON WHY IT’S GONNA BE ABOUT 3 TO 4, OR EVEN CLOSE TO 5 INCHES IN SOME PLACES IN THESE COUNTIES FURTHER EAST. WINTER IS GOING TO BE ABOUT AN INCH AND A HALF AS ESTIMATED IN INDIANOLA AND DES MOINES. ABOUT AN INCH OR LESS OF RAIN. SO FAR. BUT WE’RE NOT DONE WITH THIS YET, SO WE’RE GETTING SOME HEAVY RAIN THIS MORNING, ESPECIALLY IN CENTRAL IOWA RIGHT NOW. HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 80’S BY THE TIME THIS AFTERNOON. THERE’S STILL GOING TO BE A RAIN CHANCE WITH THAT 80’S BY THE TIME FURTHER SOUTHWEST. FURTHER NORTHWEST. LOWER RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER. IT’S GONNA BE 70 C. YOU CAN’T REALLY GET THAT WITH THE ATMOSPHERE WE’RE SEEING THIS AFTERNOON. THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FURTHER NORTH IS NOT GOING TO BE AS HIGH, BUT IT WILL BE, ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHEASTERN QUADRANT. SO CORYDON ALBIA CENTERVILLE KNOXVILLE AND AREA, THAT SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL BE HIGHER. IN FACT, THAT’S THE HIGHEST TEMPERATURE IN THE STATE DURING THIS AFTERNOON. SO LET’S TALK IT HOUR BY HOUR. MORE OF THESE SHOWERS AND NON-SEVERE STORMS THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. WEATHER IS MOSTLY MOVING FURTHER NORTH OF 35, EXPECTING A FEW OF THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS TO DEVELOP THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. AND AS WE EXTEND EVEN THIS AFTERNOON, SOME PLACES ARE GOING TO BE COMPLETELY WIPED OUT FOR TODAY AS WE CONTINUE TO ADD THESE RAIN TOTALS INTO THIS AFTERNOON, FROM 4:00 TO 6:00 P.M. THAT’S WHAT I EXPECT TO SEE MORE OF THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS BECOME MORE SEVERE AND ESPECIALLY AS WE GET INTO THE LATE EVENING, FROM 7:00 TO 8:00 P.M., WHICH WILL REALLY INCREASE THAT ACTIVITY. THERE’S STILL GOING TO BE THAT SUNSHINE TO HELP WARM THE AIR AND GET US IN THAT RIGHT ATMOSPHERE FOR THESE STORMS TO DEVELOP. But around 10:00 PM, they’re moving away. We’re going to settle in as we go through the night. But mostly to the south and southeast. That’s the best chance for the severe weather that you see on the screen to occur. It’s going to be strong. Winds are going to be the main threat, and there’s still going to be some large hail and even a threat of a tornado later this evening. That direction is going to get about 2 to 5 inches of rain. We’re still expecting that. THERE WILL STILL BE THAT FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FOR AREAS EAST OF I-35 FOR THIS AFTERNOON WITH THESE STRONGER STORMS DEVELOPING, WHICH WILL TAKE A BREAK ON WEDNESDAY, WE ARE GATHERING OUR BREATH AND WE SEE MORE RAIN CHANCES DURING THE 4TH OF JULY WITH MOR
