Chilly August - And A Wet Wednesday-Thursday?

We started tabulating some of the numbers for the month of August, and found some interesting results. Check out this image below showing average highs for the Sioux Falls area the month of August:
That is 5 degrees below average - and not including today's high so far of 69 degrees. Today's high should drop/raise this August's weather to be near the 10th coldest on record.

As for the start of September, things look cool and wet to start the month. We are looking for showers and thunderstorms to start out Wednesday to Thursday. You can see a computer model's thoughts on that possible rain below:
See that little blob of green over our area? That is where the showers should be by Wednesday evening. That's about in line with our own forecasts here in the KDLT Weather Center, so you can probably expect those. We'll update you if we get any changes in that.

Have a good night!
