Snow free period
Posted: 15 Nov 2012 05:32 AM
Des Moines has yet to report snowfall this year, which extends the
streak of days since the last reported snow during the first week of
March. The featured chart shows period between the last snowfall
reported in the spring and the first snowfall of the fall. Only two
other years have seen a longer stretch without snow (2001 and 2004).
The black line shows the average last and first date. Our first
snowfall for Des Moines should happen before the end of the November,
but the forecast keeps temperatures above freezing until at least
Thanksgiving.
