The weekly report is also available on the USDA’s website at nass.usda.gov.

Northeastern Iowa saw negative departures of up to four degrees while near-normal temperatures were found southwest; the statewide average temperature was 50.3 degrees, 2.6 degrees below normal.

Light and variable winds persisted overnight as temperatures cooled into the low 30s northwest to low 40s southeast under the stars. Unseasonably warm temperatures returned to Iowa on Monday (10^th) as daytime highs pushed into the upper 70s and low 80s across the state’s western two-thirds. Strengthening southerly winds held overnight lows in the low 50s north to upper 50s south. Spotty showers skirted several counties in southeastern Iowa after sunrise on Tuesday (11^th) leaving behind minor rain totals. Wind speeds increased through the day as a strong cold front approached from the west. Clear skies in northwestern Iowa allowed temperatures to rise into the low 80s while cloud cover and rain held temperatures in the mid 60s in the southeast. The surface boundary finally pushed over western Iowa just before midnight with a few severe-warned thunderstorms along the Iowa-Nebraska border.

Morning lows varied from the mid 30s in northern Iowa to the low 40s farther south. Gusty northwesterly winds persisted with chilly daytime temperatures hovering in the low to mid 40s in northeastern Iowa. A fast-moving low pressure center brought very light rain showers to Iowa’s southeastern half through Friday (14^th) leading to damp and chilly conditions; temperatures again held in the 40s and low 50s east to west. Rainfall amounts were no more than a trace at most stations to 0.20 inch at Augusta (Lee County).
