OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – Rain is falling across southeastern Nebraska and western Iowa, and residents are preparing for the possibility of severe weather later on Sunday. The storms moved into southeast Nebraska Sunday morning and spread into Iowa. The National Weather Service says these storms might produce large hail and damaging winds, so residents are being encouraged to monitor the weather.

A severe thunderstorm warning was issued Sunday morning for the western Iowa counties of Mills, Page, Montgomery and Fremont. That area may see quarter-size hail and 60 mph winds.

The Weather Service says there is a significant chance that more severe storms will develop in Nebraska and Iowa Sunday afternoon.
