Des Moines Braces for Heat Wave as Rain Remains Scarce
TL;DR Summary
Des Moines and much of Iowa continue a hot, muggy spell through the weekend as a strong ridge keeps heat in place; highs near 95F with dewpoints making it feel hotter, and only spotty morning showers expected from a front near southern Minnesota—no widespread rain or severe storms anticipated, with a gradual cooldown into mid to late next week as the ridge weakens and highs dip to the mid-80s, though humidity remains high.
