(Radio Iowa) – State Climatologist Justin Glisan says Iowa and the entire upper Midwest saw a warmer July with the average temperature here about 77 degrees — or three degrees above average.
Glisan says July didn’t repeat last year when it was the second wettest on record, but there were some unusually heavy rainfalls.
The overall rainfall story in the state continues to be split.
The rain was enough to back up the old saying “it’s not the heat, its the humidity” that makes things uncomfortable.
The heat and humidity finally broke as the month of July ended.
