11:00am Update: Drizzle will continue into the early afternoon ahead of low pressure currently tracking through southern Iowa. Very scattered showers with embedded thunder have been developing in northeast Iowa and will track to the north and northeast through 2pm. It's possible that a few showers may fill-in ahead of the low in eastern Iowa from Cedar Rapids and Iowa City and affect northwest Illinois through 3pm. As the low and cold front move closer this evening, a line of showers and thunderstorms will likely develop in Iowa and track east into the evening. While a rumble of thunder is possible, any stronger storms should remain south of I-80.
Temperatures have been struggling to make it out of the 30's with the overcast skies. It won't be until the low moves towards northeast Iowa that we'll likely see the temperature go up into 40's. This won't occur until after 4pm.
Previous Morning Update:
Light rain showers will mix with sleet and wet snow early this morning as a cooler pocket of air, below 32°, sits roughly 3,000 to 5,000 ft above the surface. Temperatures will remain in the low to mid 30's through the morning and won't reach our high of 46° until late this afternoon as a second push of milder air surges north in Illinois ahead of low pressure.
