Pattern April Showers

25 degrees in Kansas City in the middle of the afternoon in April. Not sure thats ever happened before.
 
Front just hit here mid 70s to low 40s by tonight

Places in Oklahoma stuck in the 30s with freezing drizzle crazy
 
A little late in the year for this, but ... what the heck ...

So what the heck could go wrong ... LOL ... :eek:
 
Feels like winter again here how i missed you lol

Never thought I'd see the term arctic cold front in the NWS discussion in April tbh lol

I've figured out why the wintry threats and cool snaps are continuing: the SouthernWx snow icons. As long as they stay, the cool and wintry threats will continue. So, long live the snow icons!
 
I wonder if April has ever been colder than February in Atlanta.

Not since records started in 1879. The closest to this I could find is 1997, when April was only 6.6 warmer than Feb. However, April has been cooler than March six times by my count.
 
I honestly don't care if North Carolina somehow manages to get a foot plus of snow sometime soon, but I'm just done with the back and forth in temps. I'd like to have consistency rather it being 82 one day and in the low 50s the next, as an example.

I have pretty good reason for it. I adjust pretty quickly to a temp range, and I'm pretty sure the swinging back and forth gives me a headache and may have helped fuel some sinus issues for me.

They can have all the snow they like, but if it causes my temps to be in the high 50s-low 60s with it being gray/damp/windy, no reward for being well below average this late, I will be very frustrated.
 
that wind bites tonight, it was somehow 73 earlier

Back to the 70s Tuesday then we plunge again lol

Hellacious April ice storm in CAE per 00z GFS. No way, no way. That can just go on away now with the growing season coming into effect.

Here was the 18z GEFS mean:
