Summer is now our spring! ?? I love this

Temps don’t get out of the 50s next couple days and dews in the 20s it’s going to feel a lot like not late April .. wow incredible
It’s only suppose to be in the upper 50s (probably 60) on Thursday and that’s it, Friday back in the 60s

Wasnt it summer of 84 or 85 where we were really cool for summer temps? I remember Fishel saying its going to be a scorcher today with a high of 90, and I think that was late July.

Yeah how anyone has a problem with this weather in April is beyond me.....this is the spring we usually dont get much of......usually go from winter to summer here but the last 2 weeks have been wonderful, and it looks to continue for another week.....it will be summer from mid May till mid Sept but that isnt enough for some folks I guess.

50 isn’t spring , that is winter . 70 is spring and that is what your weather robs us of . Enjoy going from winter to summer ! No one is asking for 90s yet except fro really , just no more -------- late season ag crusher frosts and freezes and just a bunch of 70s.

I didn't even know it was possible to get snow this late outside of the mountains. This is insane.

Naw highs in the 50's in spring is not unusual, no more so than 85-90 is.....I would rather have 50's in April than 85-90.....the frost the end of this week will be marginal at best for most of us and its certainly not looking like ag crushing frost or freezes.....hell most fields are not even planted yet.....

That isn’t true , we just came off a pretty hard freeze in April which set things back and now this ? You’d be naive to think that has no impact , and plenty of fields are planted already . It’s almost may as well, it certainly happens and is within the norm year to year but on an average year is not to be expected this late. As for having 50s in April take 264 to I-95 north and keep driving for about 13 hours till you reach New England . You will find em there !
I will add this is overall silly it’s whatever the weather does . No need for you or me to place expectations on what people should desire .

Dang you know you live in a warm climate when your avg high is already in the mid 70s
Couldn't agree more. Today was absolutely spectacular. Just a beautiful day to be outside.

That’s why we are called the Southeast. Our region is warm and you know that.Dang you know you live in a warm climate when your avg high is already in the mid 70s

Today's weather was just crazy. I was in Louisville this afternoon. It was in the 70s and sunny. An hour later I was driving in snow with temps in the 30s.
2 different places can often have different type of weather tho

Yeah but only 60 miles apart ? I didn't even know it was possible to be 70 and sunny and then in the 30s and snowing just 60 miles away. My a/c was cranked up one minute and then an hour later my heat was on.
Those arctic fronts can work magic

Some official normals released today by noaa, just annual means for some locations. I'll mention Asheville which warmed by 1.5 degrees to an annual mean of 57.4 and Atlanta which warmed by .6 degrees to 63.2. Precip down slightly in Atlanta but up by like 4 inches in Asheville. Dallas and many other cities are mentioned. Page 16 on this presentation from today. Can't wait for the full release. Alaska didn't warm much actually while Fargo ND cooled by .1

At some point the warming has to stop right ? I mean if Asheville warms by 1.5 degrees every 10 years then 300 years from now their avg will be close to 100

I just measured about 2". Not bad for April 20. Funny how it can snow here in the latter part of April but Atlanta struggles to get snow in January.
Definitely not much issues if we get wind gusts like this thurs morning
oh and the HRRR doesn’t even have 50s for CLT on Thursday we still reach 60

History is being made in Indianapolis today. The airport has recorded 2" which is the most snow this late in the season since 1897 !

Winter came by here to say goodbye before it leaves for the summer. Snow is falling now with temp of 34. I mean real snow with no rain mixed in flying through the air. It has been falling off and on for over an hour now. Lates and longest April snow I’ve ever seen out here.
