Davenport Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
Eastern Iowa, along the Mississippi River, has a humid continental climate. Summer are known for being hot and humid. Wintertime brings very cold temperatures and often high winds. Snow is likely from November through February. Average snow fall is 30.7 inches annually. Substantial weather changes frequently occur at three to four day intervals as a result of mid-latitude storm tracks. While situated squarely in the path of Tornado Alley, no devastating tornado has ever touched down in the mid-eastern region of Iowa. The reason for the lack of tornadoes may be due to the fact that the Mississippi River and Rock River merge together close to the city. However, flooding is often a severe problem in eastern Iowa. Autumn brings pleasant temperatures and colorful foliage.
