Coverage of rainfall since yesterday morning in the Corn Belt turned out to be much less than expected, with isolated to widely scattered activity all that was seen with most of the region getting no rain. Those places that did see rain though did see some big amounts, with radar suggesting narrow strips of very heavy rain in parts of southeastern South Dakota, eastern Nebraska, southwestern Iowa, and northeastern Kansas. Isolated thunderstorms continued to be noted mainly west of the Mississippi River early this morning. Basically anyone in the Corn Belt could see rain over the next 24 hours, but like yesterday it should be quite widely scattered in nature (but, if you do get rain, chances are good that you will see some fairly big totals). Tomorrow should not feature much rain in the region, but an approaching cold front will start to kick off thunderstorms again for tomorrow night in far northwestern parts of the region, with that system moving into the heart of the Corn Belt for Saturday.
It is possible that the storms on Saturday might produce a lot more severe weather than heavy rain. I do not think that next week is an especially wet week for the Corn Belt, but there will be chances for widely scattered rains from time to time. Not only was it not as wet as expected yesterday in the Corn Belt, it was not as hot as expected in some areas either with Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Minnesota largely failing to see highs above the 90 degree mark. Today and tomorrow will be warm/hot days for the Corn Belt though, with highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s in most spots (though far southwestern parts of the region likely will see middle and upper 90s). Our cool front on Saturday will cool western parts of the region that day, with the entire Corn Belt cooler for Sunday. The first part of next week will feature largely normal temperatures for the eastern two-thirds of the region, with somewhat above normal temperatures west of the Missouri River. Cooler weather still looks to be in store for the entire region as we move into the July 4th holiday weekend (areas near the Great Lakes might be a bit below normal on temperatures during that time frame).
