Very warm for late September

Posted: 28 Sep 2021 05:20 AM

Afternoon temperatures on Monday felt more like summer than fall with record highs set or tied at a number of locations in the state. The featured map presents an IEM computed last date for the 27 September and after period having as warm of a temperature as that observed on Monday. 30 Sep and 1 Oct 2019 appears for a number of sites, but for locations in central and southern Iowa had more exceptional temperatures with the most recent dates occurring back in the early 2000s and even 1997 for Ames and Des Moines. We'll have a few more very warm days until something closer to average happens with the start of October.
