May has a non-zero shot at being cooler than April. Can't imagine that happens too often

The winter moth (tiny green caterpillars) came out today . All over the place with silky webs flying in the wind and can see the tiny holes in the not all the way out Oak leaves that blew down and squirrels are chewing . Each year the winter moth cats have gotten more so hoping this year they really hammer the Oak leaves to kill as many trees as possible .

Moved today, new name and everything.

18z NAM even bigger than 12z

but it is the only 46 years of data we have for this beautiful region of The Great Lakes....so we analyze!!!

This one maybe is a little more accurate?

Saw a patch of blue and temp climbed over 50, better than yesterday's high of 43. (Avg high is 60.) Had a few IP as rain arrived yesterday afternoon.

We are more alike than you think!

48/25 is apparently dry enough to get frozen down here… graupel and mangled chunky flakes for a 3 minute shower. Dog came in with frozen pellets on her back.

It has improved since my initial post(when you copy and paste it updates).

4pm on May 3 and it feels like 41 degrees. This blows

The 12z Euro went bonkers too.

40s all day and powered through with shorts on. About half a dozen layers on the upper body though, ha. Channeling my inner DIT.

Shorts everyday all day since mid Morch

Yes you are correct. RDU was the cutoff we got a little more than there but this map is garbage

Today is great.. worked this morning and just cooked hamburgers on the grill.. how could you not like this..? It's refreshing and you're not sweating your balls off.. keep this all summer

Reached low 60's today with a couple thundershowers, one that produced very brief hail. Webcam in the back caught a deer migrating back in. Starting to feel like Spring.

I would welcome a statewide 1" -1.5" and call it a day. We need several events where the soil profile has the opportunity to slowly rehydrate, not some big event where we get several months of rain in a couple of hours.

pollen kicking my ass

52° in Greenfield with some gusty wind. I’m still stubbornly rocking the shorts though.

Upper 40s and windy…a few glimpses of sun aren’t saving this day.

We had a couple of rounds of graupel late morning while I was doing work outside

Somewhere above 6000' is gonna get buried. Doubt I get more than an inch or two here in the city, but at least it looks like a much needed soaker.

That would be good news IMHO...don't get me wrong, I'm know it will be warmer than average, but like 1982-1983, that scenario would likely entail some bonafide period(s) of winter.
