2026 Daily Dew Point Range
Posted: 24 Jun 2026 05:30 AM, Views: 604While it felt a touch more humid on Tuesday than previous days, it was still another very pleasant June day in Iowa. Maximum dew point temperatures reached the lower 60s, but not much more than that. The featured chart presents the daily range between the minimum and maximum dew point temperature for Ames based on available hourly data for 2026. Any days with a maximum of at least 65°F are highlighted in red. You can see that such days have been rather limited this year and remarkably, April has about as many such days as any following month. While the next few days look to continue the pleasant weather, full blown summer heat and humidity look to arrive soon, so enjoy it while it lasts!
