IA|Central|DMX|SITUATION REPORT/OUTLOOK

6P 2026-09-29. From US National Weather Service Des Moines Iowa: It has been a near-record month for rainfall across Iowa, and it will end with more widespread and potentially heavy rain. Showers and thunderstorms will move into western Iowa on Tuesday, then persist in a swath that will slowly move across most of the state for a couple of days before finally exiting. The most likely period of heavy rainfall will occur from late Tuesday night into early Thursday, or perhaps even into late Thursday. Total rainfall amounts during this time will be 2 - 4 inches in many locations, with isolated areas potentially receiving up to 6 inches, which will result in renewed flooding concerns. Be sure to stay tuned to the latest forecasts, and possible watches and warnings, as the week progresses.

Consistent rain is expected for several hours, with tropical downpours possible at times. Rainfall amounts of 2" to 4" are likely, with locally higher amounts possible. Area creeks and streams are running high and could flood with additional heavy rain. Flooding concerns will increase with each round of rain.

US|🇺🇸🪖Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Day🪖🇺🇸

2026-09-29. Southeast Iowa Storm Chasers pays our deepest respects to the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) that served in the US Armed Services. United States Air Force, U.S. Army, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Navy. Your sacrifice to provide the safety and security to our nation and its citizens should never go unnoticed, disrespected, or not celebrated. You have earned this day. Thank you so much for your service and sacrifice!

On September 29th, National VFW Day honors the men and women devoted to this valuable organization and those members who have served our nation.

Members of the organization named Veterans of Foreign Wars VFW today hold a long-standing history of volunteerism in their communities. Not only have they served their country, but they continue to serve their fellow veterans, families, and communities by sponsoring scholarships, career fairs, mental wellness campaigns, and so many more excellent services.

VFW membership since its inception has been instrumental in the establishment of the Veterans Administration, the creation of the national cemetery system and passage of the GI Bill. Through the VFW, veterans honor veterans and serve their communities. On National VFW Day, take a moment to recognize all the VFW does in your community.

NATIONAL VFW DAY HISTORY
The VFW was established on September 29, 1899, by a group of veterans from the Spanish-American War and the Philippine Insurrection. It has since grown to be the nation’s largest group of combat veterans. They continue “to honor the dead by helping the living.” The VFW promotes patriotism, goodwill, and youth scholarships. They also provide military assistance and community service programs, promote youth activities and volunteer many hours in their local communities.

HOW TO OBSERVE National VFW Day
🪖Honor the VFW members and veterans in your community.
Let them know that you appreciate the sacrifices they have made for all of us. We truly are the land of the free because of the brave.
🪖Visit and support your local VFW.
Most VFW halls are open to the public and many provide drinks and food. Consider donating or supporting your local VFW.
🪖Learn more about the VFW by visiting: http://www.vfw.org/
