26 days and counting
Posted: 05 Apr 2012 05:52 AM
Our remarkable stretch of warm weather continues to set interesting
records. The featured chart shows the daily high and low temperature
departure from average for Des Moines since the first of March. The
past 26 days have seen a high temperature ten or more degrees above
average. This is easily the longest streak on record for the site and
bests the previous longest streak of 17 days back in Jan-Feb of 1931.
Much cooler overnight low temperatures are set to arrive this evening
with chances of sub freezing temperatures over the northeastern half of
the state.
