Sub 60s set to return

Posted: 24 Aug 2010 05:00 AM

It has been a long and muggy summer. For Des Moines, the temperature has been at or above 60 degrees since the 6th of June. This is the second longest streak of days behind 81 days back in 1983. A front is sweeping the state clean of muggy air this morning and will usher in very comfortable and much drier air for mid August. The featured image shows a model forecast of air temperatures with values expected to drop below 60 on Wednesday which will end the streak at 79 days.
