The crop report this week looks to be relatively the same with slightly drier weather leading to slightly drier soils across the state. This is true in southern Iowa where abnormally dry conditions remain while the rest of the state is ok on moisture at least for now. Oats are nearly harvested and are thus …
WONDERFUL WEEKEND: Cooler temperatures with some slight chances of precipitation will be what’s in store this weekend across the state. Today there will be some clouds around with a slight chance of showers and storms around. Readings will be in the 70s to lower 80s across the state. The chance of rain albeit slight, sticks …
INTO THE WEEKEND: Shower and thunderstorm chances will continue mainly over the eastern half of the state today as a system slowly moves out of the state.
