(Des Moines, AP) Wet and turbulent weather has been forecast for much of Iowa.
The National Weather Service says there’s a slight chance of tornadoes, damaging winds and hail Wednesday and Thursday in addition to up to 1.5 inches of rain.
The threat for severe weather Thursday is more likely in southern Iowa than the rest of the state. Wednesday’s early rain was expected to cease by early afternoon, and the service says the second round of rain should fall late Wednesday and into Thursday morning.
Minor river flooding in northern Iowa could occur by the weekend.
