Where’s the sun angle crowd? Accumulating snow with an early August equivalent sun angle. lol

We had snow late evening May 10, 2020. I had 0.7", DTW 0.5".

Top 5 lows with some records yesterday morning across MN. Records set in I-Falls & Hibbing. Looks like they set records this morning, too. Some top 5 records in WI, as well, yesterday, and this morning. Last time temps were similar at many of these stns was 2020 & 2021. 

Chilly wx brr!

Reflective SW radiation with cold ass air.

Really looks like El Nino might be the saving grace - hopefully anyways. Could not imagine what the PDSI could end up if we saw a 1934-type summer setup? Would be something ridiculous like -10 to -15 nationally.

Two more chilly nights and then we are probs done with frost potential.  Pattern change is afoot

Mid 40's to low 50's inland to low-mid 50's along the shore with a down sloping wind from the NW. Chilly day away from the Lake in some areas of NE MN.
