In some locations, low temperatures on Thursday were warmer than the average high temperature for the date. The featured chart looks into the frequency of this occurance with the bars representing the number of years that this has occurred for Ames. The red line is the record daily maximum low temperature and the black line is the daily average high temperature. Notice that during the summer season, the black line is always higher. In fact, the period of 9 May to 29 Sep has never seen a low temperature greater than the average high for Ames!
