Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and Lt. Gov. Adam Gregg will attend various events around western Iowa, this coming week. On Friday, May 24th, the Gov. and Lt. Gov. will attend a Flood Advisory Board meeting at the ISU Center, in Malvern, beginning at 10-a.m. And, both will be in Sac City at 4:30-p.m. to attend the Sac County Home Base Iowa event.
(Radio Iowa) — While parts of Iowa had record high temperatures in the low 90s on Thursday, forecasters say cooler, wetter weather will likely dominate much of the rest of the month and well into June. During a National Weather Service briefing, climatologist Martha Shulski (SHUL-skee) says heavy rain will spread across Iowa and much of the Northern Plains next week, raising the critical risk of renewed flooding. “The prediction is in the three-to-five inch range, so a pretty active pattern,” Shulski says. “These forecasts have been pretty consistent which gives you some higher confidence in the forecast actually verifying. Certainly, it’s something to look out for in terms of impacts over the next week.”
In spite of a few scattered hot and humid days, Iowa’s weather has been much cooler than normal this spring and forecasters anticipate that pattern will remain. “Continued higher probability for below-normal temperatures for a swath in the central U.S.,” Shulski says. “This is combined with the increased probability of wetter-than-normal conditions for June.”
Thanks to the El Nino, it’s possible the cool, wet weather will last well into summer, as will the risk of more flooding, as the ground remains saturated in many parts of the state.
Today: Occasional showers and thunderstorms. High near 80. South wind 13 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 26 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.
Tonight: Showers and thunderstorms before 10pm, then showers and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly after 10pm. Low around 52. South southwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming north after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between three quarters and one inch possible.
Sunday: A 30 percent chance of showers before 1pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 59. Breezy, with a west northwest wind 13 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 28 mph. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible.
Sunday Night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 40. Northwest wind 7 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph.
Monday: A 20 percent chance of showers after 1pm. Partly sunny, with a high near 61.
Tuesday: Showers and possibly a thunderstorm before 1pm, then showers and thunderstorms likely after 1pm. High near 66. Windy. Chance of precipitation is 80%.
Yesterday’s High in Atlantic was 85. We received .54” rain during the day. Our Low thos morning, 64. Last year on this date our High was 85 and the Low was 57. The record High in Atlantic on this date was 94 in 1934. The Record Low was 32 in 1891.
(FORT DODGE) – Officials with the Iowa Department of Corrections report 25-year old Roy Dylan Sanchez, who was convicted of Theft in the 1st Degree and other crimes in Webster County, failed to report back to the Fort Dodge Residential Center as required, Friday, and his GPS tracker had been removed without authorization.
Sanchez is an Hispanic male, height 6’2″, and weighs 182 pounds. He was admitted to the work release facility on April 9, 2019. Persons with information on Sanchez’s whereabouts should contact local police.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Adrian Sampson got his first career win following opener José Leclerc in his first major league start and the Texas Rangers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-3. Rougned Odor and Shin-Soo Choo homered in a seven-run second inning. Joey Gallo had both his hits in the highest-scoring inning this season for Texas. It was the Cardinals’ first game in Arlington since losing Game 5 of the 2011 World Series.
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Mike Trout and Albert Pujols had two hits each and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Kansas City Royals 5-2. Matt Harvey pitched two-run ball for five innings, and the Angels opened a nine-game homestand with a win after dropping three of four. The Royals have lost three in a row and five of their last six.
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals have activated Carlos Martínez from the injured list after the right-hander missed the first 44 games of the season with a right shoulder cuff strain. The club also designated veteran right-hander Luke Gregerson for assignment before Friday’s interleague game at the Texas Rangers. Rookie reliever Ryan Helsley was recalled from Triple-A Memphis and right-hander Dominic Leone was sent down.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — Police in western Iowa say a fourth person has been charged in the robbery death of a Council Bluffs man. Council Bluffs police say in a news release that 25-year-old Ryan McDonald, of Glenwood, was arrested around 3:30 a.m. Friday on a warrant charging him with first-degree murder in the January death of 38-year-old Adam Angeroth. Police did not release any information explaining McDonald’s suspected role in the killing.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld a 2017 law that removed bargaining rights for many state employees. In cases filed by the Iowa State Education Association and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the court ruled 4-3 on Friday that the law withstands constitutional challenges. Both decisions were written by Justice Thomas Waterman, an appointee of former Republican Gov. Terry Branstad, who supported the new law.
NEWTON, Iowa (AP) — Montana Gov. Steve Bullock waited until May to declare his candidacy for president, but he’s wasting no time getting to the point. Bullock launched his first full day of campaigning Friday in Newton, Iowa, a town where union manufacturing jobs have vanished in the past 15 years. In doing so, he is underscoring his argument that his party can win in 2020 only if they show voters, especially in Middle America, that Democrats understand their economic concerns.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa’s unemployment rate remained at 2.4% in April for the 10th month in a row. Iowa Workforce Development reported Friday the jobless rate held steady, where it has been since July 2018. Iowa has the nation’s third-lowest rate, behind Vermont and North Dakota, and tied with New Hampshire. The number of Iowa residents with jobs in April climbed by 4,600 to 1.67 million. The number of unemployed residents dropped to 40,400. Iowa’s figure compares to a national unemployment rate of 3.6% in April.
