The roller coaster temperatures this winter continue.

Sunday’s official high in Hays was 76 degrees, according to the K-State Agricultural Research Center. Much warmer than average, although not quite a record high for Feb. 18. That was set back in 1930 with a high of 79 degrees.

Monday’s high temperature was much cooler, just 27 degrees, a difference of 49 degrees.

The overnight low was 13 degrees and brought 0.02 inches of a light snow and ice blanket in Hays. Snowfall for the season so far is 8 inches.

Tuesday’s weather forecast calls for a cold, blustery day. A Winter Weather Advisory was in effect until 9 a.m.
