Speaking of 1975...the 70s are becoming weather of yore. Warm days, frigid nights, big ranges, long dry stretches, low QPF. I’d take the cold mornings if I could get numerous 60s/70 during the day.
MEX has a min of 19° for CON for Thu 4/23. That would break the record of 20° from 1975. When we’re threatening record low mins in this era you know you’re in a cold pattern.
So here we are on 4/18 and I have yet to hit 60F this month. I had a 60.0F on 3/20 although if you did ASOS 5-min averaging on my data my high would've been below 60F that day. That would push me back to 66.7F on 3/9 as my last day with a high above 60F. Just cheating and glancing at MOS, I could go without 60F for the entire extended period...

EPS and GEFS are caca right into May. A month of April here without 60F would be lol worthy. I'm pretty sure Kevin cursed this spring with his early torch talk.
Should be a nice high terrain interior Mass jack. Looks a tick warmer/north than 00z, but it only really affects those on the southern fringe. Looks good Pike-north for a hefty thump. Still thankfully a low QPF event up here.
