The sky started to clear out over central Iowa Thursday night. The trend will continue Friday with more sunshine than clouds through most of the day.

Friday starts beautiful with sunshine and highs in the low 50s, but clouds will lift in from the south during the late afternoon as a storm system lifts out of south central US. This will bring rain and snow again across extreme southeast Iowa by late Friday evening and overnight. There will be a little snow early Saturday morning but it won’t last long. Skies will start to clear and temperatures will return to the low 50s by afternoon. But we are not quite done with the rain yet! Another chance of showers is expected for Sunday and Monday. The rain and snow mix expected late Sunday into early Monday continues to move farther to the southeast of Central Iowa.
