 | Title : I'd say it's colder than normal
 | Date  : 09 Feb 06:41 AM
 | Votes : Good: 18   Bad: 4
 +----------------------------------------------

A plot of observed and average temperatures this month for Mason City is shown.  It doesn't take much imagination to say it has been colder than normal with high temperatures struggling to exceed 0, let alone the average low temperature each day.  The only sign of hope in this plot is the upward trend of average temperatures with the spring season only a 40-some days away.
