The weather the last couple of weeks in Central Iowa has been absolutely great to be outdoors for residents. It also means that the weather has been ideal for working out and getting prepped for ADM fall sports teams for the upcoming season. Since July 21st, there has only been one day that the high temperature has reached 90 degrees or above. The weather has been relatively been on average compared to other years, but maybe the major difference has been the lack of humidity across central Iowa.

For summer workouts for football, volleyball, and cross country, it’s great for players to workout in more pristine temperatures. It’s also better for coaches to not worry as much about players overheating and suffering from dehydration, which has caused dozens of deaths across the United States every year.

Coaches and players will hope that the great weather will continue as we dive into August. The first practices for all sports will be August 12th.
