The last 30 days have marked a bit of a shift in the weather pattern that had dominated the region for much of the summer. Temperatures over the last week or two have generally averaged 4-8 degrees below average. Unfortunately, precipitation patterns have not changed for the better and we remain below average on rainfall for the past month. While we still start this period with a frontal system that will provide some rainfall and continued below-average temperatures, much of the first half of the upcoming 30-day period will feature plenty of sunshine and near- to above-average temperatures. Temperatures across the Dakotas, Minnesota and Iowa are expected to be above average for the next 30 days with below-normal precipitation.
