Abstract

In the course of studying residential energy use in central Iowa, I kept track of the hourly temperatures recorded in Des Moines. The temperatures were simply those published daily in the Des Moines Register (with occasional obvious corrections). I noticed that during the winter months in Iowa there are occasionally long periods (up to a few days) when there is remarkably little change in outdoor air temperature, and these always occur near the freezing point of water.
