Here is a look at the progression of shower and storms today:

Total rain through 10pm today:

Wind forecast over the next 4 days: Becoming quite breezy today and tonight, then again Friday.  

Thursday will be sunny and very nice!  Friday, a warm front lifts in and brings a widely scattered storm threat Friday.  A much better threat drops in late Friday night through Saturday morning.  A front will drop south through the area Saturday PM-night and bring a potential severe cluster of storms especially from southern Iowa south through Missouri.  That will be a time-frame to watch.  Sunday, Iowa appears to be drier with the best storm threat in Missouri as the front stalls here.  Wanted to give at least an idea for the weekend.

Rain totals through early next week are very heavy for Missouri with 2-4″.  Beyond that, Iowa looks to see increasing risks to get very wet in the week 2 period.
