Breaking our cold stretch

Posted: 15 Feb 2018 05:34 AM

Temperatures warmed nicely over the past two days breaking our recent stretch of cold temperatures. The featured chart displays daily high and low temperatures this year for Des Moines along with daily climatology and departures from daily averages (bottom panel). The recent spike to positive departures is certainly welcome for those wishing to get rid of some of the snow and ice that accumulated over our mostly cold and snowy February.
