Statewide Iowa — After a relatively mild summer so far in northwest Iowa, this could be Iowa’s hottest week of the year up until this point.
Meteorologist Rod Donavon at the National Weather Service says the forecast calls for steamy, sticky weather right into the weekend.
Thursday could be the hottest day of the week, with highs approaching 100 degrees. The heat wave coincides with RAGBRAI, as thousands of bicyclists make their way across the state.
There’s an outside chance for a little rainfall and some cooler weather this week, though the odds aren’t great.
