There are storm chances across central Iowa for the weekend, but most will be limited to the mornings. Meteorologist Meteorologist Amber Alexander is here to break down the central Iowa 3-day forecast.

DANGEROUS HEAT is expected across central Iowa this week. Meteorologist Amber Alexander says a massive ridge at the mid-levels of the atmosphere will boost highs into the upper 80s to mid-90s this week and with south winds (and a lot of mature corn) humidity will be HIGH! Red

A stationary boundary will bring storm chances across central and southern Iowa late Friday, but once clouds clear, we'll be left with the sunshine, heat, and high humidity for the rest of the weekend. It will feel like the low 90s on Friday, the upper 90s on Saturday, around

9:45 PM and storms are now mainly in Nw Iowa. Power lines were reported down in Rock Valley. Isolated tornadoes are possible with this line, but the biggest threat is straight-line winds over 60mph. This line is currently moving east at 60 mph. That puts it around Pocahontas,

An active pattern means storm chances will linger across Iowa over the weekend. But Friday does look fairly dry, just hot and humid. Meteorologist Meteorologist Amber Alexander has the details:

If you're headed to the Iowa State Fair 🌽 this week, most of the week will be fairly typical for August in Iowa. Some things worth noting: -A cold front stalls over the Eastern 1/2 of Iowa tonight, keeping storm chances through Monday. ⛈️ -The mid-week won't be terribly hot, but

It's Thursday and I'm back for another weekend forecast. It's of course the last weekend of the Iowa State Fair and we're in for a HOT one. Highs will be in the 90s over the next few days, but it will feel like 100-110 during the afternoon. Isolated storm chances will remain

For the last week of August, it's looking like a MILD week of weather. Highs will be in the mid 70s to start the week, but increase to the low 80s starting Thursday. Overall high pressure will be in control most days with a weak wave bringing a slight chance of rain on Friday and
