(Snowy Street - KIWA Staff Photo)Iowa (RI) — Iowa’s temperatures in November have been several degrees above normal so far, but that’s likely to change as cold air moves into the state Wednesday night.
Temperatures are expected to reach highs in the 30s and 40s, with chances of flurries and light snow.
National Weather Service Meteorologist Rod Donavon says November is known for wild weather swings.
He says two major historical storms hit on this date. The Great Blue Norther of 1911 brought extreme temperature swings, thunderstorms, tornadoes, followed by a blizzard, and the Armistice Day Blizzard of 1940, which brought more than two feet of snow in certain areas. The Iowa DNR says the storm killed 160 people across the Midwest.
