The National Weather Service in Valley, NE has cancelled Severe Thunderstorm Watch # 301 for Fremont and Mills Counties in Southwest Iowa. The Watch remains in effect until 2-p.m. for Harrison, Pottawattamie and Monona Counties in the KJAN listening area.
The primary threat from storms that develop will be large hail with isolated damaging winds up to 70-miles per hour possible.
The latest weather statement from the National Weather Service points to an ever-increasing risk for severe thunderstorms across Iowa, today. Scattered thunderstorms may be moving northeast out of Nebraska into western Iowa and may contain large hail over an inch in diameter. More vigorous activity is expected to develop by mid to late afternoon over northwest Iowa then shift east into this evening.
Very strong storms are expected with this activity. Initial storms may produce very large hail and a few tornadoes before evolving into a damaging wind threat by mid to late evening. Heavy rainfall is possible as well, especially over northern Iowa. Localized flash flooding may occur with storms producing intense rainfall rates.
