The struggle has been real for much of northern Iowa this spring with the numerous rounds of snow and cold temperatures. The featured calendar shows daily high temperature departures from long term average for Estherville. Positive values are depicted in red and there is very little red to be found on this calendar since the first of March including all of April. This chart also depicts seven Sundays in a row with below average high temperature, which has been noticed in other parts of the state as well. It is an open question when this site will get above average, it may take until early next week as some cooler temperatures are in the forecast again.
