Late in Year for 60
Posted: 11 Dec 2020 05:36 AM
The temperature reached 60 degrees for Waterloo on Thursday and set a new record for the date.
The featured chart presents the latest date each year with a high temperature of at least 60 degrees
for Waterloo along with the number of days that year at or above that level. The 2020 value is shown
as the fourth latest and about 3.5 weeks later than the average of 16 November. A front swept the
state clean of this warm air by Thursday evening and the near term forecast is much more in line with
temperatures we would expect for the second week of December. Accumulating snow is likely as
well, so welcome fully back to winter in Iowa!
