The weather this past weekend was spectacular with mild temperatures, clear skies, and light breezes. Southerly winds did help to bring even warmer temperatures into western Iowa on Sunday. The high at Des Moines was able to reach 80 degrees. Temperatures this warm have been a bit below average so far this year as shown by the featured chart. The blue dots represent the average number of hourly temperature reports at or above the given temperature. The red dots are so far for 2017. For levels above 75 degrees, this year has been below average while for levels below 75, this year has been well above average. So we have enjoyed mild conditions so far this year without seeing significant amounts of really warm temperatures.
