Large August Difference

18 Aug 2014 05:00 AM
Slow moving storms dumped large amounts of rainfall over southern Iowa on Saturday with totals in the three to six inch range. The featured map displays estimated precipitation totals for August based on NCEP stage IV data. This analysis shows portions of northeastern Iowa receiving less than a tenth of an inch while parts of southern Iowa are over eight inches for the month! The good news is that the dry area is expected to receive rainfall today, but it may come at the expense of some severe weather.
