This map is a few days late, but interesting that high temperatures on Easter were colder than that of the previous Christmas for some portions of the country. The featured map presents a difference between the daily high temperature for both dates with areas in blue indicating colder high temperatures on Easter than Christmas. For Des Moines, this situation is not too exceptional with a total of 15 years over the past 143 having this happen. In fact, this happened between 2019 and 2020 with a Christmas high of 60 and an Easter high of 49. That 49 though was warmer than both temperatures this go around with a Christmas high of 48 and Easter high of 38. The maximum difference for Des Moines was with a Christmas 1936 high of 58 and Easter 1937 high of 39.
