WITH SUMMER OVER - HOW DID IT PAN OUT?
Midwest/Plains
The Upper Midwest received some heavy precipitation this summer. Wisconsin had its wettest summer on record, recording nearly 7 inches above its average.
Elsewhere in the Midwest and Plains, other states had a top ten-ranking summer for rainfall, including Minnesota, Nebraska, Michigan, Illinois and Iowa.
Iowa in particular endured some significant rainfall this season, as the storm pattern kept directing storms in its path. Des Moines recorded twice their normal summer rainfall.
On this day in Iowa weather history...
1995: Unseasonably cold weather affected most of Iowa from September 20-22. On the 20th and 21st temperatures failed to climb out of the 40s in many areas and on the 21st a few snowflakes and ice pellets mixed with rain were observed at ten stations scattered across northern Iowa including Sibley, Spencer, Clarion, and Parkersburg. This was the earliest fall occurrence of snow in Iowa since 1938. The coldest temperatures followed on the morning of the 22nd with a freeze recorded across nearly the entire state. Temperatures as low as 24 F occurred at Emmetsburg and Sibley and even in far southeastern Iowa the temperature bottomed out at 35 F at Fort Madison. In northwestern Iowa temperatures remained below freezing for nearly eight hours at some locations with the resulting soybean losses totaling around 200 million dollars.
