How much snow pack you have left? Mine finally gave about 2 weeks ago

Ground is about 50% covered with 3-6" remaining. Two swampy areas near the house each still have close to a foot, and just eyeballing outside this morning looks like 2-2.5 of fresh snow fell overnight coating everything. Cool today and tomorrow with highs in the upper 30's/scattered snow showers.

We'll add a little bit to this month's precipitation total tonight, but as of right now, South Bend has recorded 6.22" of rain in April. This makes it the 5th wettest April on record.

If you combine March and April, South Bend saw 11.54" of precipitation, the 3rd most all-time for March and April combined.

It was an extremely impressive March-April period in terms of warmth for a huge chunk of the Midwest (rivaling 2012), yet people refuse to acknowledge it and instead hype up cool periods that eventually get outweighed by the inevitable warm periods that follow. Almost like there’s some kind of mass hysteria going on as a result of the climate changes in some of these folks. They simply can’t cope with what’s happening.
