Late for 65 degree dewpoint
Posted: 23 Oct 2012 05:51 AM
Very muggy air for this time of year visited Iowa on Monday. The dew
point temperature reached 65 degrees Fahrenheit for Des Moines. It is
very late in the year to have such a high dew point temperature as
shown by the featured chart. Only two other years (1934, 2004) have
experienced 65+ dewpoint after 22 October. Two more very warm days are
expected before much colder air arrives and highs will only be in the
40s!
