***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***

Right, I get that. Could be an interesting start to our severe storm season here, and sitting behind my desk as an insurance agency owner, only makes me cringe a little bit!

Being a Hawkeye you probably get nervous for your fellow fans in their trailers.

BCClone, are you out of the woods with the weather up there yet?

Ha! Trailer house stood the test, as did everyone else I know. Had one warning, which I'm pretty sure you were apart of, but it ended up being pretty lame. Hail and wind in the area, that's about it.

Just had hail. Asked the farm neighbor and he said heavy rain, a little hail and that was all. Daughter lives in southern Winnebago and the sirens went off for her. No damage to my knowledge.

I mean this as totally weather related, and there's no other way to say it, but it appears that a lot of the state of WI got hammered tonight.

@cyclones500 I think this deserves notable post recognition. Lol.

I would bet good money that the SPC upgrades today's risk to moderate here with the next update in a half hour or so.

Still look like it'll be NE of central Iowa? Or will the Des Moines area be at risk as well?

Many Cedar Rapids area outdoor school activities are cancelled...

I literally feel kinda sick. Don't love any of this. Maybe it's that we already spent 1am last night in the basement but I just dislike today.

That cell at Story City right now could be the first one to go.

There’s gonna be some big hail in that one I think.
