I think that is more subjective. I tend to stay away from using those types of phrases. 

That's not unreasonable.

37F low

Today's upper 60's to low 70's looks like the warmest day for the next two weeks. Insane.

Thankfully I picked up 1.02" of rain over the 2-day weekend most of it Saturday night.  Had put down some fertilizer hoping I wouldn't jinx it and didn't.  More is forecast for the middle of the week.

Got up to 70 for a high after a low of 40.

Currently a sunny 68 with dp 44.

Below normal temperatures are likely for the foreseeable future. We also turn wetter with rain chances increasing tomorrow morning and especially tomorrow night. Each day trends a bit chillier through the upcoming weekend with highs by Saturday around 15 degrees below normal for the start of May.

to all. Many of you do not realize the extent of the real ahrd freeze about two weeks ago.  Many fruit trees and vineyards  have been decimated. 0-10 % of the normal fruit harvest from our region alone. All new growers are finished before they even started for this year. All  3 vineyards in Lowhill Township area lost this years grape growing season.  The grapes will likley come from non-PA growers to make wine this year if they want to bottle wine.  The media has turned a blind eye to this issue- believe me --as they are too damn worried about social issues than the number one economic driver in PA- food production. Its a real shame as many people will lose their jobs and still the politicians say absolutley nothing. N0 PA apples, peaches, plums, grapes, strawberries, bluberries and nectarines at the farmers markets.  Personally even when covered , my beans  received 80% damage. More needs tobdiscussed as I feel PA politicians should be asking for federal disater relief for this. It was hardwinter to boot and many municplaities are hurting based on local road conditions too. Time to discuss these issues rather than baseball and sports issues as they relate to weather patterns

First half of May is projecting colder then May 2020, when it snowed.
