  1. Faint aurora over Gitche Gumee last night.
  2. Just had a heck of a detour but made it to our campground. First time I’ve been personally impacted by wildfire like that
  3. 80 today. Blowing dust west of town. There have already been several blowing dust advisories this year. Seems like more than any year in the previous 15 but I might have recency bias.
  4. Hey @Brian Dhows greenup coming along up your way? Taking the family camping in your neck of the woods near Split Rock Lighthouse this weekend.
  5. Beautiful benign weather in the Twin Cities but it’s dust bowl dry here. 0.02” of precipitation so far in May and only 6.71” since January 1.
  6. Surprised how widespread the frost was this morning. Drought concerns starting to creep into this area if we don’t get some rain soon.
  7. Surprised by both these stats the NWS just put out.
  8. MSP got down to 32 this morning. Very likely our coldest morning until October.
  9. Chilly but dry, beginning to need some moisture here and the extended doesn’t offer much hope. High of 52 today, maybe the last frost of the season tomorrow morning.
  10. Patchy Frost this AM. Beautiful spring day on tap
  11. Patchy frost to end the month. 3.25” of precipitation in April at MSP
  12. 1.14” of precipitation here yesterday. Would have liked more but this was a welcome rainfall. Temps look average to slightly below average over the next week locally.
  13. Steady stratiform rain all day. We needed a good deep soak, could use more but this is a great start. Got soaked at work and didn’t mind one bit. Now my grass might start to grow.
  14. Picture perfect April weather after the precipitation fail here yesterday. Low 60s and a deep blue sky. MTD Precip MSP: 1.96” YTD Precip MSP: 5.40”
  15. 86 here today. Warmest day of the year by far. Hopefully we can get some good storms tomorrow to get the perennials going, then back to normal with 50s/60s in the extended.
  16. MSP picked up 0.1” of snowfall yesterday morning bringing the season total to 48.6” this is likely the last snowfall until October.
  17. Dusting of snow on elevated surfaces. Winters last gasp.
  18. Picked up 0.11” of precipitation yesterday. Frosty morning low of 30
  19. This camera south of Rochester appears to have been knocked offline. This is the last available stillshot
  20. Missed all the heavy stuff but got a decent soak and some brief pea size hail. Temp has dropped from 66 to 43 in the last two hours.
  21. Seems like most of the sub has seen as much or more precipitation in April then I have all year. (5.20” since January 1)
  22. * All time April record at MSP was broken in 2018 with 15.8” during the 4/13-16 blizzard. Brilliant blue skis and bright sun also appeared the next morning.
  23. At the airport dog park literally on the north end airport perimeter right off the runway 12L/30R threshold with a nice view of the miss south.
