Warmer Weekend Expected in Iowa

(Des Moines, IA) — Forecasters say temperatures are going to warm up for the last weekend in January. National Weather Service meteorologist Ashley Bury says the southerly winds are brining warmer air into the area and temperatures could be well above freezing in some parts of the state. She says central and western Iowa could see highs in the 40s Saturday. The warm conditions will continue into the early part of next week. Bury says it looks like we’re still going to be in the 40s for Monday, and then as we get into the beginning of February — looks like it will kind of hold into the 30s for much of the area. Temps are expected to drop down back to the teens by Wednesday
