WHERE THE HECK IS WINTER???
DON'T GET REAL COMFY WITH THIS WARM WEATHER. AS A MATTER OF FACT, ALL INDICATIONS POINT TO MAJOR CHANGES COMING FOR LAST WEEK OR SO OF OCTOBER. WE MAY BE SEEING OUR WARMEST TEMPS RIGHT NOW UNTIL MARCH 2011......
IT'S LOOKING LIKE OUR WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPS WILL COME TO AN END AFTER THE 19TH. STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP OVER THE SOUTHWEST U.S. AND MOVE NORTHWARD INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS - THEN INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. THE GREAT LAKES WILL LIKELY SEE IT'S FIRST MEASURABLE SNOWFALL OF THE SEASON - AND LOW TEMPS MAY DROP INTO THE HIGH 20'S/LOW 30'S FOR IOWA......YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!
On this day in Iowa weather history...
1899: Unseasonably warm weather brought the temperature into the lower 90s across about the southwestern half of Iowa. At Des Moines a high of 91 F makes this the latest date of the year on which 90 degrees has ever been reached at that location. Other reported high temperatures included 91 F at Centerville, Denison, Greenfield, and Onawa, 92 F at Carroll and Glenwood, and 93 F at Clarinda, Council Bluffs, and Red Oak.
