RECORD TEMPERATURES REACH SIOUXLAND

SIOUX CITY---WE REACHED A NEW RECORD OF 94 DEGREES IN SIOUX CITY MONDAY, THE OLD RECORD OF 92 WAS SET BACK IN 2001.

THE CALENDAR SHOWS IT'S EARLY MAY, BUT IT'LL CONTINUE TO FEEL A BIT LIKE JULY OR AUGUST THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE METOEROLOGIST BRAD SMALL SAYS DEW POINTS ARE RISING ALONG WITH TEMPERATURES.

NORMAL HIGHS THIS TIME OF YEAR ARE IN THE 70S, BUT THEY'LL REACH 90 THIS WEEK.

TEMPERATURES REACHING THE 90S IN EARLY MAY IS UNUSUAL, BUT NOT UNHEARD OF.

MORE SEASONAL TEMPS WILL RETURN LATER IN THE WEEK WITH HIGHS BACK IN THE 60S AND 70S BY THURSDAY.
