March 16th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

For: Sac-Crawford-Carroll-Audubon-Guthrie-Dallas-Adair and Madison Counties

…Elevated Icing Possible Today…

A band of precipitation is moving through the area through the early afternoon. Temperatures have fallen at or below freezing under this precipitation and has led to some icing on cars and other elevated surfaces. Road temperatures have remained at or above freezing and so far no icing on roadways has been reported. However, local icing on roadways and walkways is possible, especially in areas that are typically shaded during the daytime and where subsoil temperatures have not warmed as much as other areas.

Red Flag Warning for parts of southwest Iowa

Ag/Outdoor, News, Weather

March 14th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

The National Weather Service has issued a “Red Flag Warning,” for the southwest corner of Iowa. The warning currently affects Fremont and Page Counties, where potentially dangerous fire weather conditions will exist this afternoon. The warning is in effect from 1-p.m. today until 7-p.m.

Gusty southwest winds (at 15-to 25-mph) combined with low relative humidity values and dry fuels, will result in dangerous fire weather conditions across parts of southeastern Nebraska and southwestern Iowa this afternoon. As temperatures climb well into the 60s today, humidity levels will drop below 20 percent. These low relative humidity values, along with southwest winds gusting to 25 mph, will make any fires that develop difficult to control.

A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now, or will shortly. A combination of strong winds, low relative humidity and warm temperatures can contribute to extreme fire behavior.
