Very warm temperatures showed up late last week and into the first half of the weekend with Des Moines hitting 50+ degrees on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. With the rest of the month expected to be cooler than 50, the three days this January is a day above long term average as shown by the featured chart. The chart also shows that a number of years did not even reach 50 once for the month, so things certainly could have been much worse.
