Persistent Temperatures

Posted: 12 Sep 2009 07:38 AM

The past week or so has seen high temperatures not vary much for Ames with the range being a mere 3 degrees (78-81). The featured chart looks at the minimum 7 day temperature range for all days of the year. In general, the lowest values are in the summer time when strong temperature fronts are not common. The spikes during the spring and fall months are when we often experience air mass changes via strong fronts.

Good = 8
