For some counties in northeastern Iowa, this was the first tornado watch of the season. The featured map displays the number of Tornado Watches issued by county so far this year. There are nine counties shown without a watch this year! The highest totals are found in southeastern Iowa with Scott and Des Moines county at seven.
