We are now starting to see some returns on radar, moving northeast around 30 to 40 mph. So far, not seeing any lightning with these, and the rain might actually be evaporating before reaching the ground. There is also a lone cell that just formed in Muscatine county. If out and about early this morning, just keep these showers in mind. If storms do get going, which appears less likely now with this activity, there could be lightning and small hail with them. | US National Weather Service Quad Ci
