Yeah I cringe when I'm at stores and see tomato plants out this early. I'm sure there was some damage this morning with the temps near freezing.

People would be foolish to have warm weather stuff like tomatoes in the garden this early. I still just have cold tolerant vegetables like broccoli and lettuce in the garden right now. Important to wait until early May for the stuff that's sensitive to frost in this area, but I guess they put up these frost advisories for people that plant too early.

Nasty today. Only 51 degrees here right now. Not much to talk about for awhile. Finally in a dry pattern. Maybe just a shower on Wednesday. Pretty much just normal temps (maybe slightly below a couple days) for late April over the next week with highs in the 60s. Boring weather ahead, but I'm ok with boring for awhile after all the rain we've had in recent months.

I was wondering the same thing. Only 0.01 here. So much for the rain event, but this is still miserable weather with temps barely hitting 50 today. Looking forward to breaking out of this on Saturday with temps well up into the 60s. Monday and Tuesday look nice too with temps well up into the 60s and possibly near 70. Too bad another significant cooldown will likely be coming mid to late next week though, as Bluewave has been pointing out.

Nothing wrong with sweating a little bit. Enjoy it.

82 here. Spectacular weather. Very warm temps feel great with the low humidity.

Yeah definitely more than we thought. Latest HRRR shows this band pretty well with about a quarter inch across our area.

We might get a third of an inch out of it. Decent batch of moderate rain incoming.

Yep looks like it's just gonna be some moderate rain for us.

75 degrees here.

Strange that RGEM is showing rain for tomorrow afternoon. The other models are dry. I assume the RGEM is off its rocker. It's supposed to be a beautiful day. Probably the warmest day of the next 3 as well with temps well up into the 70s. Enjoy the 70s today through Tuesday., Too bad we're going to be backdoored with cool and damp weather for Wednesday and Thursday. Hopefully we can break out of it a little bit and have a decent day on Friday.

Decent downpour with that line. It added 0.15" here, so I'm up to 0.99" for the event. Another batch of lighter rain coming up from the south as you pointed out, so that will get me to a little over an inch for the event. I'm glad this didn't end up being another one of those 2 to 3 inch super soakers. We didn't need that, but an inch was a nice watering for the vegetable garden. Tomorrow looks nasty. Cloudy and windy with high temps only in the mid 50s, but then we go back to nice warm weather on Sunday. Looks like a nice stretch of mostly high temps in the 70s for Sunday through most of next week. Then probably a cooldown to below normal temps next weekend. Anyway I hope everyone has a great weekend!

I've picked up 0.84" from this event so far. I see the narrow line of downpours has moved into Somerset County, so it will be here shortly and might get us to a little over an inch of rain for the event.

We were running about 1 degree below normal through the first week of the month, but we knew that wouldn't last these days. That 80 degree day on the 9th wiped away our negative departure for the month.

80 degrees here. Beautiful.

Now up to 78 here.

76 here right now. Maybe we can get to 80 today. It's going to be close.

I'm glad you're starting to come around. We want snow in the winter, but this time of year it's nice to get warm weather.

Yeah it stays pretty bright out even with just 10% of the sun. Didn't seem very dark to me. Really meh, but I know it's cool to look at with the special glasses for people that are fascinated by this event.

Yeah I was gonna mention that too. Models right now showing a half inch to 1 inch rainfall, not too bad. Hopefully that will be the case since the last thing we need is another 3 inch super soaker. Of course the way things have been going, it wouldn't be surprising to see the models trend wetter as it gets closer. Anyway it's 68 degrees here. Beautiful weather today.

I am with you on that. I love watching meteor showers, but eclipse doesn't interest me very much.

Yeah that snowband saved my area from having a way below average snowfall winter. Ended up getting almost 20 inches for the winter here.

I'll still take that great snowband we had in February over this lol.

48 degrees here as our below average early April continues. Looking forward getting back to above normal temps on Monday (probably mid 60s), and then mid 70s on Tuesday.

Yeah not good for people that were still in bed. Just talked to my elderly father. He was sleeping late and was so startled that he fell out of bed and hurt his back.
