  1. Washout of a day, 0.56” of liquid and counting.
  2. May 2018 was a crazy month. Latest ice out ever on the metro lakes. The urban lakes didn’t go ice free until May 2nd/3rd followed by the earliest 100 degree reading on record in Minneapolis a few weeks later.
  3. Going up to Lutsen MN this upcoming weekend for some late April skiing. (We downhill ski into May most years in Northeast Minnesota) There is still a very solid snowpack up there. Looks like for the second year in a row my timing will be poor. Cold rain Saturday with a stiff east wind off Superior.
  4. All night snow showers led to just a dusting here. High of 38 today.
  5. Been lightly snowing here for a few hours. Little bit of slush on the deck but that’s it.
  6. Morning low of 25 with pixie dust. Still have some patches of snow from Thursday night. Looks like we might some sloppy snow followed by rain tomorrow night.
  7. 24 and flakes flying. Good morning everyone.
  8. Been snow squalling all day. Dusting on dustings.
  9. Sorry for your loss Brian. 28 with a wind blown dusting of snow here this morning.
  10. Confirmed EF-2 tornado in Taopi MN last night. Destroyed much of that tiny town. https://m.startribune.com/storms-inflict-heavy-damage-on-taopi-in-mower-county/600164599/
  11. Radar is blossoming to my SW, first severe thunderstorm watch of the season.
  12. We had beautiful weekend weather here with highs in the upper 50s low 60s region wide. Lake Nokomis is officially ice free as of April 10th. Average is April 4th so a little later this year.
  13. Another 0.7” overnight here. Fourth morning this week there’s been overnight snow that mostly burns off by around noon. MSP is now over 50” for the season.
  14. All day snow showers today in the Twin Cities. We’ll get a coating on the grass then it will melt as rates lighten up, snow will pick back up and we’ll be covered again. Lots of drought finishing precipitation lately.
  15. Another morning with “white rain” and slushy accumulations on the grass.
  16. All night rain has turned to slushy snow imby.
  17. All day rain here with more in store overnight, then mixing with flakes tomorrow. Looks like a spring heart attack storm for the north shore. NWS suggesting up to 18” of heavy wet snow possible in the higher terrain. My April 23-25 ski trip in Lutsen is looking good!
  18. 1” overnight at the airport. Looking at my backyard cam, appears a lot has melted off overnight.
  19. Late season snow stats courtesy of the NWS. April 1893 must have been wild in St. Cloud.
  20. Snow/rain showers this afternoon, I was in the yard cleaning things up and was surprised to find ice and frost beneath areas that had thick leaf cover over the winter. Looks like a coating to an inch overnight that’ll burn off rather quickly tomorrow. Pretty typical early April weather.
  21. https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/climate/journal/thunder-blizzard-april-13-16-2018.html full write up from the DNR
  22. You can add April 13-16 2018 - Minneapolis and central Minnesota 15-20” of snow, capping off the snowiest April on record with over 26” of snow.
  23. Overnight flurries/snow showers keeping it looking wintry around here.
  24. Sleet/freezing rain/snow. It’s a mixed bag out here this morning. Ground is white with sleet. Trees are coated in ice. Springtime in Minnesota.
  25. Overnight low of 37. Lots of ponding water on the frozen ground. Airport is reporting 1” snow depth, so the streak lives another day. Backyard glacier is quickly becoming more dog turd then snow.
