Finished May highs from 1949-2020, I will work on lows tomorrow

0.01​	40s
0.44​	50s
3.26​	60s
10.57​	70s
13.83​	80s
2.22​	90s

So almost one day in the 50s every other year, I'd say that today isn't as unusual as some might think.

Indeed. We did it last year but before that we didn't for like 12 years so we were kind of due

Not surprising given the mean lowest max is 62. Being a few degrees on the lower side of that will happen like today’s 57. Now what is abnormal...... is today’s mid day temps . If those were the highs we would have broke the all time may lowest high.

Yeah hit my high temp at 6am and was on a downward fall the entire day hitting my lowest at 4pm at 48 degrees. Crazy to COOL during the day in May. That's what makes this one a bit different.

You can have all my heat if you want it. Take it. Need more days like today where it's full sunshine and only 80F

Quite the chilly day today. Wedge kicked in after this morning and did some work. Felt like it was in the low 50s when I walked late this afternoon.

Bottomed out at 36.0, too close for comfort and I'll say this one more time..... maybe this is the last morning this cold

72/41 tomorrow on TWC. Wtf man I’ve been really patient this spring but it’s starting to aggravate me now too.

 

[FallsLake]

Yeah, 36 at Sanford and 34 at Roxboro this morning (IN MAY!!). Anybody see any frost?

 

[Rain Cold]

Got down to 39 at the house. On May 13. Nice!

No frost that I see , maybe in roxboro but the dews are pretty high so perhaps not .

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Got down to 42, this sucks and I bet the pool temps are gonna be in the upper 50s now

 

[CraggyRider]

Only down to about 40 F IMBY; there were some reports of snow in the northern mountain high country yesterday morning.

Upper 30s low 40s I'm good with but flirting with frost this late is just aggravating. Cover garden, don't cover, if you do you better be available to remove the cover as soon as sun comes up, if you don't and temp drops more than expected start over....its middle May, garden should be able to fully thrive without that headache now.

I didn't see any either but I'm sure any area that got down to 35 or cooler had a few patches here and there, nothing crop damaging though

Is this the latest you've seen 30s ?

 

[Bannerdude]

Only got down to 44.6 at the weather station at work in Moncure but we are moderated by a 72 degree Jordan Lake a few hundred feet away
