Temperatures warmed nicely on Wednesday and provided a brief respite from a recent stretch of chilly March weather. Unfortunately, a return to chilly weather returns today and the forecast has a few days with a high temperature below 32 degrees Fahrenheit expected. The featured chart presents the accumulated number of such days for Des Moines with a simple mean shown along with the min and max values. The season to date totals this year were slightly above average, but had recently trailed off, which is likely due to the transient snow cover for the location.
