The winds will stay breezy here overnight tonight.
And then through the day on Thursday, we will have a northwest wind still gusting to maybe 20 to 25 mph at times. It will make it feel slightly chillier in the morning, but we are back to the sunshine once we get rid of the cloud cover here tonight.
But once that cold front is gone, we've just got northerly winds tomorrow and more sunshine as we head into the day on your Thursday. As far as the wind chill goes, tomorrow morning makes it feel like the low to mid-teens out there, especially places in northwest Iowa, that got 6 to 10 inches of snowfall or more. It's gonna be a little bit chillier tomorrow with the wind chill.
By lunchtime, much of the state will feel like the mid-20s before rising to the mid- and upper-40s.
More sunshine coming this weekend. There may be a brief shower on Friday, but it's mild.
