September 16, 2007 Forecast

A very cool start to the weekend on Saturday morning ended up with Sunday afternoon highs in the mid to upper 70s. It was definitely a weekend in Iowa during fall (not the official fall yet). Monday promises to be even warmer than Sunday as a warm fronts slides across the quad-state area, but as the front moves through, it may also trigger some showers and thunderstorms. Some of these thunderstorms may become severe, especially north of and SLB to SUX line. The better chance for severe weather at this time appears to be Tuesday evening.



The Iowa/Iowa State game was held this weekend and the Cyclones prevailed (I couldn't watch it since it was on Versus, which we and about half the state don't get). However, both teams played horribly in my opinion. Iowa State should have blown the game open and by half been up by 28 points if they could have found the end zone. If it were a few years ago with the ISU kickers, it might have been 0-0 at half. Iowa definitely showed flaws in their game from special teams to a young quarterback. While ISU should celebrate, I think both teams have long seasons ahead.
