Flood Watch for parts of southern/southwest Iowa beginning at 7-p.m. (6/5/26)

Mills-Montgomery-Fremont-Page-Adams-Union-Taylor and Ringgold Counties

A Flood Watch is in effect from 7 PM Friday through 7 AM Saturday for southern Iowa, as confidence is increasing in thunderstorms and additional heavy rainfall tonight. This could lead to flooding, as soil moisture percentiles are at or above the 70th percentile for this time of year, which indicates soils predisposed to increased runoff from additional heavy rain tonight.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
