A passing storm system brought very warm air into southeastern Iowa on Monday. Temperatures reached the lower 70s while the northwestern half of the state struggled in the 30s. The featured map presents the high temperature on Monday with Keokuk shown at 76 degrees and Spencer at only 28 degrees, a 48 degree difference! This very warm air helped to produce hail and tornadoes yesterday over Illinois and into Wisconsin. There will be no lucky ones in the state today with cold air in firm control.
