This is Iowa Weather

Posted: 30 Jan 2013 05:12 AM

The featured chart displays a time series of air temperature for Cedar Rapids and NWS issued alerts for Linn County since Saturday. We have gone from cold temperatures, to freezing rain, to dense fog near freezing, to severe thunderstorms, to record high temperatures, to a winter storm and finally brutal cold temperatures. "This is Iowa Weather" many proud Iowans exclaim, but this stretch has been unique and certainly not what typically happens most of the time. Wind Chill Advisories are also in effect for portions of Iowa on Thursday as bitter cold air rushes into the state.
