Seven Inches in Seven Days
Posted: 31 Aug 2018 05:35 AM
The featured map presents a remarkable precipitation forecast from the Weather Prediction
Center for the next seven days. This map also contains the most recent US Drought
Monitor analysis. An incredible amount of rain is predicted to fall over this period with an
analyzed bullseye over seven inches depicted over southwestern Iowa. Much of the state is
shown in the four plus inch range. But sadly the heaviest totals are predicted to miss the
driest areas of the state again. All of this rain is thanks to a weather pattern setup that
favors daytime thunderstorms and overnight storm complexes focused into the state. This
pattern looks to remain at least until the end of next week!
