Lack of 90s

Posted: 14 Jul 2014 05:39 AM

Based on data from the Ames Airport, 90+ degrees has yet to be achieved this year for Ames. The featured chart presents the number of days at or above 90 degrees to date for each of the past years since 1893. The average is about 8 days and most of the recent years have failed to reach that level. The advertised cool weather this week has arrived, so there is little chance of reaching 90 this week. Warmer weather is in the forecast for the following week, so perhaps 90s will finally show up for Ames.
