Excellent Temperatures

Posted: 12 Mar 2020 05:35 AM

Our recent stretch of mild winter weather continued on Wednesday with high temperatures well above freezing for all parts of the state. The featured chart presents the average temperature (high plus low average) for Des Moines since 20 February. This year's value is about ten degrees above long term average and at about the 5th percentile (1 in 20 years). There is some chillier weather in the forecast and a chance of snow as our streak of great weather weekends will likely end this coming weekend.
