Severe Storm Potential Today

More Storms on Wednesday

Severe Weather Safety

There is an Enhanced Risk (level 3 of 5) for severe storms today along and north of I-80. Scattered storms are possible this afternoon and evening, favored to the north of Highway 30 with limited coverage to the south. All severe weather hazards are possible with this round and then additional storms are possible area-wide tonight.

An area of low pressure and cold front moving through on Wednesday will bring another round of showers and thunderstorms to eastern Iowa, northwest Illinois, and northeast Missouri. Some of the storms could be strong to severe during the afternoon into Wednesday night.

The time before a severe weather event is a great time to make sure you are weather aware. Make sure you have multiple ways to receive warnings and have a plan in place if you need to take shelter.
