Temperature streaks

Posted: 23 Feb 2010 06:13 AM

Ames has not seen a temperature at or above 40 degrees since the first of December (83 days). The featured graph looks at the longest periods of consecutive days above or below a certain high temperature threshold for Ames. The record for consecutive days below 40 appear is around 92, so we'll have to make it to March to set that record. The plot is truncated at 1000 days, but values at the extremes go well beyond 1000.
