TROUBLE. AND AND LAST NIGHT WE GOT A LOT OF RAIN TOO. YEAH. AND IF YOU WALK DOWNTOWN OR SEEN THE RACCOON RIVER OR DES MOINES RIVER, OF COURSE, IT'S DEFINITELY INFLATED WITH THE RAIN THAT WE'VE GOTTEN OVER THE LAST TWO WEEKS HERE. SO NICE TO SEE THE RAIN. OF COURSE, WITH OUR BIG DROUGHT ISSUES THAT WE''VE HAD OVER THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF, IT'S NICE TO SEE THE RIVER LEVELS UP, BUT WE'VE GOT MORE RAIN ON THE WAY HERE. THAT COULD CREATE SOME PROBLEMS WITH MAYBE SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE STATE. TODAY, THOUGH, IT IS DRY, WE GET A BREAK FROM THE RAIN AND THE STORMS AND IT'S ALL SUNSHINE. REALLY COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURES RIGHT NOW IN THE MID 70S. A LITTLE BREEZE THOUGH OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST AT ABOUT 17MPH. ALL OF THE RAIN AND THE CLOUD COVER. IT'S SHIFTING OFF TO THE EAST HERE, AND YOU'LL NOTICE BEHIND IT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE MOSTLY CLEAR AND BLUE SKIES. THIS IS RAINFALL TOTALS HERE FROM. MIDNIGHT ON, SO THIS DOESN'T ACCOUNT FOR THE RAIN THAT WE GOT EARLIER IN THE EVENING ON MONDAY. BUT NOTICE PICKING UP OVER AN INCH AND THREE QUARTERS HERE JUST SINCE MIDNIGHT. UP IN AMES, ALMOST AN INCH IN DES MOINES SINCE MIDNIGHT. SIMILAR TOTALS UP TOWARDS ALGONA AND MASON CITY. SO WE GOT SOME HEALTHY RAIN THERE WITH THOSE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THAT ROLLED THROUGH, AND WE'LL SEE THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE RAIN ROLLING IN BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. TEMPERATURES RIGHT NOW, UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S. IT'S A COMFORTABLE DAY FOR YOUR TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL TOP OUT IN THE MID 70S, LIKELY HERE ACROSS THE STATE, AND THEN WE'LL DROP INTO THE 50S HERE OVERNIGHT TONIGHT. THERE'S A CHANCE FOR MAYBE A SPRINKLE HERE THIS EVENING, ESPECIALLY ACROSS WESTERN IOWA. BUT I THINK A LOT OF US DO STAY DRY HERE AS WE HEAD INTO THE EVENING. WE GO INTO TONIGHT AND AGAIN, MAYBE A SPRINKLE OR TWO POPPING UP ACROSS WESTERN OR NORTHWESTERN IOWA. BUT THE REST OF US SHOULD STAY QUIET. WE BEGIN THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY WITH SOME CLOUD COVER TOMORROW, SO A MIX OF SUN AND CLOUDS AS WE HEAD INTO THE LUNCH HOUR. AND AS WE GO INTO THE AFTERNOON, WE'LL SEE. MAYBE A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS START TO BUBBLE UP HERE ACROSS WESTERN IOWA, AND THEN EVENTUALLY SHIFTING INTO CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE STATE OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY MORNING. SO WE GET SOME MORE HEAVY RAIN OUT OF THIS. MORE RAINFALL TOTALS UPWARDS OF MAYBE A HALF AN INCH TO AN INCH, DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE ACROSS IOWA. AND IF YOU GET UNDER SOME OF THOSE HEAVIER SHOWERS, WE'RE MOST OF THAT RAIN IS KIND OF FOCUSED ON RIGHT ALONG I-80 HERE THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING. SO WE'VE GOT MORE RAIN ON THE WAY AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE THOSE RAINFALL TOTALS GO UP AFTER WE GET THOSE SHOWERS AND STORMS HERE TOMORROW AFTERNOON. AND EVENING. TODAY'S FORECAST THOUGH. WE'RE BACK INTO THE 70S. TONIGHT'S FORECAST ONLY IN THE LOW TO MID 50S WITH PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. WE HEAD INTO THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY. WE'RE TALKING THE CHANCE FOR SOME ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BY THE AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES INTO THE MID 70S AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY. WE'LL DROP IT BACK A LITTLE BIT WITH SOME CLOUDS AND LEFTOVER SHOWERS ON THURSDAY WITH HIGHS ONLY IN THE MID 60S. AND
