Cedar Falls Weather Forecast: Will We Ever See the Sun?

In case you had forgotten with all this cool weather and all these cloudy skies, this is June. And though the clouds and rain will persist more than we'd like this week, there will also be a few sunny days with some summer heat.

There's no rain in the forecast today, clouds notwithstanding, and Tuesday should be in the 80s and mostly sunny.
