The featured analysis displays observed peak wind gusts so far this Thursday morning. A strong storm system to our west is gathering this morning and will be slowly working its way east today and tomorrow. Wind speeds in the lower part of the atmosphere are very strong and will mix down to the surface increasing the values shown on the plot today. The storm system is expected to also bring severe weather to Iowa late this evening and on Friday.
