Overcast early morning

Posted: 25 Feb 2016 05:35 AM

Seeing clear skies, let alone sunshine has been a struggle this month. The featured chart displays the frequency of having overcast conditions reported by the Des Moines Airport weather station. The top chart displays the monthly climatology frequency along with those experienced this year. The bottom chart displays the February values for each year on record. This analysis places three quarters of the 6 AMs so far this month as being overcast and only 1998 was higher for the entire month. Maybe our luck this month will change with the four days we have left!
