I know , I think too many people on here think our climate is that of concord New Hampshire or something lol. Our average high is what? 74 exact I think right now?

Dang you know you live in a warm climate when your avg high is already in the mid 70s

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.

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.

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.

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

This has to be one of the most extreme temperature days for NC. From 30 on the peaks to 80 along the coast.. jealous of you guys to my east tmrw. I’m over the cold at this point.

 

[Dewpoint Dan]

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

 

[Brent]

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

Tulsa had a trace in May in 2013

Bonus points to who remembers how May 2013 ended in Oklahoma...

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.
