12 Days of 80+

Posted: 17 Sep 2024 05:30 AM

Monday was yet another very warm September day with high and low temperatures well above average. For Ames, it was the 8th consecutive day with a daily high temperature of at least 80°F. The present forecast has such days continuing through Friday before slightly cooler highs on Saturday. If the forecast for the next four days holds, it would make for a twelve day streak. The featured chart presents the day of year frequency of participating in such a streak with the earliest and latest such streaks listed at the site. This year's streak would fall a number of days short for being the latest on record.
