Readings were mainly in the 30s where skies remained cloudy early this morning while clear areas had dropped into the mid 20s. Winds remained northwest at around 10 mph. Clouds will linger across about the eastern half of Iowa for a good portion of the day before some clearing occurs. Farther west, more sunshine is anticipated.
