MN Transplant Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 How's this for fun weather? My brother is in Austin, MN today and he says that there is still a parking lot pile of snow leftover from that big storm about a week and a half ago. Point and click for Austin today is 93°. It is already 97° about 80 miles west. Did we still have parking lot piles in early April 2010 when it hit 90°? I'm thinking we might have.

MN Transplant Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 http://voices.washingtonpost.com/capitalweathergang/2010/05/unbelievable_still_snow_at_bwi.html Awesome. The pile behind West Falls Church metro also lasted for a very long time, so that must have been well into April also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure there was still a pile of snow in April at the junction of 295 and the Inner Loop, just before you cross the Wilson Bridge.

WinterWxLuvr Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Awesome. The pile behind West Falls Church metro also lasted for a very long time, so that must have been well into April also. There was a snow pile in Winchester that lasted from Christmas Eve until about the 5th of April THIS year. Granted it was in a spot that never received sun, but it still counts.

MN Transplant Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Amazing how quickly things can change in the spring. Indeed. There are a lot of times where the temperature here is 30-40 degrees (or more) warmer than my hometown. Not many times where the inverse is true. 99 there, 61 here.

Disc Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Now today felt great. This day would be my idea of a 10. Maybe closer to 75-80 degrees would be a little better, but I can deal with 71. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 https://twitter.com/THESarahD29/status/334392255148343296 Downtown Duluth gets epically screwed on ENE winds in the spring. Might as well be Cape Cod or the Maine islands. 43 at Sky Harbor airport, 66 at KDLH on top of the ridge, and 86 at Moose Lake, which is about 20 miles away. 100° in Owatonna. They had 16" of snow 11 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as you left the arrowhead of Minn and made it up to Thunder Bay, it was in the 70's/80's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Started out sunny and clear but overcast now. Like the warm up but not liking the chance of rain on Sunday. It is my girls recital and I need to drop them off back of the theater. Hope the rain holds off for that part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Going to be a struggle for "low to mid 80s" today unless there's some sun real quick. Yep, it all depends on the sun cause the 850 temps would put it in the mid 80s easy but this time of year you need sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Going to be a struggle for "low to mid 80s" today unless there's some sun real quick. I could see upper 80s happening. So long as the sun comes out this afternoon we should spike right up. My co-workers are trying to convince me that it will be 90+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Going to be a struggle for "low to mid 80s" today unless there's some sun real quick. This is one of those days where we get the high temp after the climo report comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
