Seasonally mild temperatures have been a struggle recently with numerous hours having
below zero Fahrenheit values. In fact, many locations in the state recently completed a
significant stretch of consecutive hours below zero. The featured chart shows the streak for
the Des Moines Airport, whose streak of 2 days and 18 hours finished in the top ten longest
since 1936 based on unofficial hourly archives maintained by the IEM.
