It was the coldest May 9 in more than a century, according to official statistics from the K-State Ag Research Center in Hays.

The mercury dipped to 31 degrees overnight. While it was just shy of the record 30-degree May 9, that record was set in 1909.

The temperature is expected to begin to rise into the weekend and next week, with highs near 70 Sunday and into the mid- to upper 70s on Monday.
