A SOGGY, RAW SUNDAY....

FEELING THE LOVE. Over the past 9 days thanks to your generous donations, we've been raising the funds necessary to cover the cost of this site. We are on our way and with your continued support we're going to make our goal. Still, we are a way off from reaching our goal and I'm asking those of you that enjoy the insights and effort that goes into this site to consider a voluntary subscription. I'm asking $12.00 dollars for a year. That's $1 dollar a month or 3 cents a blog if you consider the fact there were 450 posts issued over the past year. The site requires a significant commitment of time and resources and every donation, whatever the size is deeply appreciated. I just need a little help to cover the expenses. Click on the link below if you can assist or or need additional information. I thank you for your support and consideration.

Saturday started of cold and frosty! It was the coldest we've been since April as we dropped down near and below freezing.

The chance for frost will be low over the next few days as the pattern turns more active... and that starts Sunday.

Sunday is not just going to be rainy, but it's going to be raw too.. Let's start with the temperatures... they're going to be held down due to the clouds, rain, and strong winds:

Winds will be kicking out of the east and may gust as high as 40 mph at times:

Rain will be widespread throughout the day with the heaviest rain the further south you are:

Rain will wind down from west to east early Monday and by the time it's all said and done there will be some pretty beneficial rain that has fallen:

Note the sharp cut off in northern Iowa... there will be quite a bit of dry air on the north side of this system which should limit rainfall totals north of Highway 20. However, there will be the potential for storms and heavy rain near the southern Iowa border.

There will be another storm system that comes in Wednesday/Thursday, but there is still uncertainty on the intensity of this system:
