After a cool Friday, the weekend is looking really warm! Highs climb into the 70s tomorrow, though south winds will be gusting to around 35mph at times. The warmest will be in western Iowa where highs could be near 80! Even warmer Sunday with lighter winds for most of the area. https://t.co/uFyrV0AbtM

The cloudy skies will keep your Friday afternoon a little cooler than average for mid-April, but with lighter winds it should still feel pretty decent outside. Spring warmth returns for the weekend! Highs reach the low 70s Saturday, and upper 70s on Sunday though it'll be breezy. https://t.co/tpJ4bFfRYt
