Lack of 90+ Days

Posted: 20 Aug 2014 05:40 AM

Getting really hot summer weather continues to be a struggle for much of the Midwest this year. Even getting days above 90 degrees are few and far between as shown by the featured map. Two values are shown for each of the primary automated weather stations in the state with the top value being the number of days at or above 90 and the bottom value being the departure from long term average for number of days above 90 (year to date). There are still a number of places in the state that have yet to reach this level of warmth. The forecast does hold some hope of reaching this threshold during the next few days.
