First 90

Posted: 14 May 2013 05:39 AM

The warmest weather so far this year is expected today with high temperatures pushing 90 degrees over most of the state. The featured map displays an analysis of the average date of the first 90 degree temperature of the year. The general gradient is from west to east with extreme western Iowa seeing its first 90 degree temperature around this time of year and far northeastern Iowa around the end of June. It will also be windy today, which will help dry out fields in the state allowing further progress on planting.
