Indianapolis: 2012 vs 2013 Temps, Precip, and Snow

[Chicago WX]

Comparison between last year and this year for Indianapolis, through July. Been a bit different in 2013 versus 2012, but that should come as no shocker considering last year's epic warmth through July...and dryness to an extent. March and July stand out as pretty big temperature reversals, but every month this year has been cooler than last year's edition. Overall, 2013 has been 6.4º cooler than 2012...almost double the precipitation...and almost triple the snowfall.
