June 1st, 2021 by Ric Hanson

The month of May in Atlantic was cooler and drier than normal. Weather data compiled here at the KJAN Studios (The official National Weather Service reporting site), show the Average High last month (rounded-off) was 71 (70.8), compared to the normal average high of 73. Our Average Low in May was 48 (47.5), which was just one-degree cooler than normal. We broke the old record Low of 29 degrees on May 5th, when the thermometer bottomed-out at 28. The day before (May 4th) was the coldest day of the month, with a Low of 27, but it was not a record-breaker.

We received 2.65 inches of rain last month, which was nearly 1.7 inches (1.67″) below the normal 4.32 inches for May. Looking ahead to the month of June, here in Atlantic, we can expected an Average High of 82-degrees, an Average Low of 58, and rain typically amounting to 4.98-inches. We’ll let you know how the data compared to the norm,  July 1st.
