Cool Fair Weather

Posted: 24 Aug 2015 05:35 AM

The Iowa State Fair wrapped up on Sunday and after a warm first few days, the weather turned much cooler. The featured chart displays the yearly average high and low temperature at the fair using the Des Moines Airport weather data as a proxy for the fair weather. The average high this year is one of the cooler in the past few decades. The color of the bars present years that were above (red) or below (blue) long term average for each plotted metric.

Voting:
Good = 13
Bad = 3
Abstain = 4
