The featured map presents precipitation estimates for the past two days from NOAA. A portion of southeastern Iowa is shown in the 1.5 to 3 inch range, which is quite large for December! Unfortunately, the areas that need the rain the most over northwestern Iowa largely missed out again. Temperatures on Wednesday were abnormally warm as well with record maximum low temperatures set in some locations. Normal temperatures return today along with not much hope for a white Christmas.
