Based on all COOP obs for 4 May
A chilly start on Sunday was quickly erased by bright sunshine and warm southwesterly winds. Temperatures recovered about 30 degrees, which is about what can be expected this time of year. The featured histogram is of observed difference between low and high temperature on 4 May including all sites in Iowa. The average is around 23 degrees. For Monday, we have a slighly warmer start with temperatures in the upper 40s, so adding 30 degrees to that will put us near 80!

Voting:
Good = 22
Bad = 13
