Mild January
The thermometer over one of the doors at Menno Mercantile on Fifth Street in Menno read 40 degrees in the shade Monday morning, Jan. 9. The temperatures would climb to nearly 60 later that day, but temperatures began to fall by Wednesday morning, Jan. 11, when a dusting of snow greeted early-morning travelers. Temperatures were expected to reach the mid 30s for the rest of the week. For a complete weather report, see the latest print edition of the Hutchinson Herald.
