(Radio Iowa) – The year 2024 wrapped up as one of Iowa’s worst in history for severe weather. State climatologist Justin Glisan says among the many incidents, a record was set for the most-ever tornadoes to touch down in Iowa during a calendar year.

That July derecho was devastating, but wasn’t nearly as severe as the one that blasted across Iowa in August of 2020, which caused some 11-billion dollars damage in Iowa and four other states. After several previous years of drought, parts of Iowa had record rainfall during 2024, which brought unprecedented results.

Hundreds of homes were lost to the flooding, while dozens of Iowa counties were declared state and federal disaster areas — between the flooding and tornadoes. Glisan says the unusual weather events continued into the latter part of the year.

As for what’s ahead, Glisan says long-range forecasts call for bitter cold for perhaps another two weeks, with high temperatures peaking 20 degrees colder than normal. He says the forecast models are still uncertain as to how much precipitation we may get.

Today: Partly sunny, with a high near 23. N/NW winds 5-10 mph. Wind chill values as low as 5.
Tonight: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 9.
Tomorrow: Cloudy w/a chance of flurries. A high near 18. N/NW winds @ 5-10 becoming E/NE. Wind chill values as low as zero.

Sunday: Cloudy & blustery w/a 60% chance of snow, mainly before noon. High near 15. New snow amounting to 1-to 2-inches is possible.
Sunday Night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 0.
Monday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 13.
Monday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around -2.
Tuesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 14.

(Radio Iowa) – A Snow Squall Warning was issued this (Thursday) morning for parts of western and central Iowa, due to visibility being greatly reduced by heavy snow. The D-O-T says many roads across Iowa’s western half are completely snow-covered. National Weather Service meteorologist Brooke Hagenhof says the storm system is headed east, roughly following Highway 30 and Interstate 80. “We’re looking at between two to four inches of snow falling across the area this morning, it’s going to fall very quickly within that band,” Hagenhoff says. “The heaviest snow looks to be along or maybe just north of that I-80 corridor as it moves across the state of Iowa.” She says a second winter storm may be looming this weekend.

“We’re looking at another system that’s going to come very late Saturday night and then mainly through the day on Sunday,” Hagenhoff says. “We’re still working out the details on it, but right now, it does look like southern Iowa would be the most likely spot for that heavier snowfall. We’ll be fine tuning the forecast here in the days to come.” That system will leave behind much colder weather, as she says we’ll have high temperatures 15 to 20 degrees below normal.

“We’re looking at temperatures for highs in the teens next week with overnight lows near or below zero,” Hagenhoff says. “Add on top of that, the wind chill, and it’s going to feel near or below zero for several days into next week.” Keep up with the changing forecast at weather-dot-gov.
