(Undated) –Several places in western Iowa hit triple-digit temperatures Tuesday. National Weather Service meteorologist Alex Trellinger says the highest temperature reported to his office in Sioux Falls was 102, just south of Akron. Morris in Sioux County hit 100 degrees; Spencer saw 101 at five p-m. It’s been 97 years since Spencer had a 101-degree day in September — and that was September 4th back in 1925. Several other Iowa cities broke high-temperature records Tuesday. Cedar Rapids and Lamoni had a record 96 degrees. It reached 95 in Burlington. Des Moines hit 94, and it was 93 in Dubuque.
