March Dew Points

Posted: 07 Mar 2017 05:34 AM

Our eventful weather pattern continued on Monday with very warm and moist air for early March fueling thunderstorms that brought damaging winds, hail, and a few brief tornadoes to the state. The featured chart presents average dew points for March partitioned by wind direction. Our winds were out of the S and SSW, which is the favored direction for the highest dew points. Actual readings were well into the 50s, which is plenty higher than climatology shown by the featured chart.
