Last week and over the weekend, temperatures in Winona were above average for this time of year. When a period of above normal tem- peratures occurs and lasts for a minimum of three days, this is referred to as an Indian Summer.

Swim- suits will soon be replaced by snowsuits,however, for an Indian Summer never lasts.
