i'm going to come inside and on cbs 2 this morning.it's a familiar sound this time of year, that hacking cough!cold and congestion can take over offices and schools in the winter. but not all coughs are the same.find out what your cough find out what the same. find out what your cough means, monday proof -- this is

hardly - freezing* outside today - >> more proof this is not a normal february. hardly freezing outside today for freeze fest in iowa city. still a lot of fun even without the snow and ice. the big event usually has a lot of winter-themed activities like bird watching, snow shoeing and ice fishing. this year, freeze fest had to improvise a little bit. but nobody seemed to be complaining about the warm temperatures. a lot of sunshine made it seem more like barbecue weather than skiing today. rebecca kopelman is here with the latest in your forecast. just keeping it going, right. >> yeah. we're going to continue to keep some of these warmer temperatures around for the next couple of days. and you can just see the reason why it wasn't so much of a freeze fest. because the snow has really iowa. there are isolated areas where the snow could be piled up. but otherwise just in our extreme northern counties where much of the snow is.

above freezing now for a couple of days. in fact the last time we were below freezing was thursday morning. and now we have had temperatures in the 50s in february. unusual. not uncommon. didn't break any records but it was definitely nice to get outside today. 50s in the south and 40s in the north. typically cedar rapids is at 35. the high today was 50. most cities 10 to 15 degrees above average. what can you expect moving forward? we're going to cool down a little bit. expect a rain and snow mix on tuesday and a mostly calm week up ahead. the sun has set and the temperatures are falling. 41 degrees with clear skies for now. the clouds will move in and we will have a couple thin high clouds overseed seed now, finishing into the area.

system that will move on through. the temperatures are starting to fall and the winds have shifted out of the north. we're in the 30s in thing in, 40s in the south. you can see the winds are starting to kick in some areas. 10 in cedar rapids. but almost straight out of the north. so that's going to allow temperatures to fall tonight. clouds are going to start to build so that will prevent temperatures falling too far. we will likely get below the freezing mark across much of the area tonight. otherwise going to be pretty calm. but we do have a weak little system moving through. not going to make too much noise as it does so tomorrow. could have a little bit of flurries, possibly a little bit of rape out there late tomorrow morning, early in the afternoon. otherwise we clear out and another system starts to approach late on tuesday, bringing that wintery mix. zooming in on predictor, you can see not too much activity. not very widespread. could be a few rain showers and possibly flurries. otherwise we will have the

tomorrow and to start off the workweek. for tonight, the clouds increase. a bit cooler than the past few nights. near 30 degrees across the area. tomorrow will not be quite as warm. in fact you will notice that it's much cooler out there with temperatures in the 40s. still above average though and could have a few of the flurries mainly in the north western counties. for the rest of your extended forecast, temperatures don't fall too far. don't get too worried. we have the next system on tuesday. temperatures still in the 40s then. temperatures start to fall, getting closer to the average temperature of 34, 35. and temperatures in the nighttime near 20 and 17 degrees. so not too bad. but, you know, not 50 degrees of course. >> tuesday you think we're looking at a mix or is that mostly going to be one thing or the other. >> more of a mix because a lot of the areas will start to rise above the freezing mark. some areas that get it earlier before the temperatures rise

could also see rain move through. >> thank you, rebecca. not the weather that we're used to for state wrestling o tournaments. it's usually colder. but it's going on big time. >> that's going on right now. we will talk about you and. >> reporter: cedar rapids next on cbs 2. mom: seriously? culligan man: problem water. i'm on it. anncr: a culligan whole-house water softening system turns your problem water into culligan water, pure and simple.
