On this day in Iowa weather history...
1961: A storm system produced rain across much of the state that changed to unseasonably early snow as it tapered off across northwestern and northern Iowa. Sioux City reported 0.4 inches of snow making this the earliest occurrence of measurable snowfall on record at that location. Other reported snowfall amounts included 3.0 inches at Swea City, 2.0 inches at Emmetsburg, and a trace at Council Bluffs, Fort Dodge, Hampton, Harlan, and Mason City. Just to the east across far northeastern Iowa heavy rain fell, with accumulations of 3.37 inches at Elkader and 3.35 inches at Fayette setting all-time September single day rainfall records at those locations.
