40 degrees above normal

Posted: 17 Mar 2012 05:55 AM

The weather got even warmer on Friday with high temperatures around 80 degrees for much of the Midwest. For some, this is more than 40 degrees above average as shown by the featured image! A number of places have also set records for the earliest occurrence of 80 degrees and the earliest streak of consecutive days over 80. The humidity levels have been on the increase as well with observed dew points being some of the largest ever recorded in March for the area. Today will be yet another very warm day with highs again near 80.
