A few weeks ago, this chart was featured showing how the minimum temperature for Ames to date was well above average. Fast forward two weeks and a few very cold nights, we are now below long term average! The chart shows that in a week or two more, temperatures near zero will not be out of the question! Our immediate future has thunderstorms in the forecast for this week and temperatures remaining above freezing.
