The featured map displays the lowest temperature reported by the ASOS/AWOS sensors for the month of April as computed by the IEM. Des Moines failed to report a freezing temperature for the month, which is the first time that has happened since 1941 (also previously happened in 1925). The warm weather has allowed farmers to get a very good jump on the spring planting season.
