I was on the board before just about everyone else in here. That was the heaviest ran I saw from the event. After 2:00pm I picked up about a quarter inch. Everything of significance ran up just west of the river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Forecast high was 72. Currently 78. Top 3 warmest April ever looks almost likely at this point. Yesterday at KMDT the average temp was 68. Today it will be around 66. On Average we don’t have average temps like these until last week in May or first week in June. . Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro It's funny how everyone just seems to think that these are the typical temperatures for this time of year. I checked my normals and for today my normal high is 65 with a normal low of 40 and a mean of 53. My low overnight/this morning was a whopping 64!! High temp was 75. That gives a mean of 70 which is 17 degrees above normal. Precip-wise I'm up to 4.41" for the month with 10 days left to go. Normal precip for whole month is 3.74". So, wet and warm April thus far. Finally...has anyone noticed how we have had southerly winds all day today?? When was the last time you saw winds from the south bring in a refreshing breeze with dewpoints progressively lowering through the 40's? I don't know if I've ever seen that happen.

I definitely agree. I went out this morning and it was 53 degrees and I thought it was chilly even though my average morning low for this time of year is 43. Half the time I'm self guessing if these temps are normal or not. The min temps are what's throwing me off lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Despite the above normal temperatures in the east this month, there was snow yesterday in the mountains of North Carolina Above 3,000 feet. That’s pretty impressive for late April! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 And to add the temp discussion the sun, at least to me, seems to be getting "stronger" each spring. Both here and in other areas of the East Coast. I got a decent burn yesterday after only 45 min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s pretty impressive for late April! I have extended family that live in the mountains down their. Above 3000' snow in April is fairly common though it doesn't happen every year. Above 5000' snow can and does fall into the first couple of weeks of May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Looks a little interesting late tomorrow afternoon/early evening. Rather strong dynamics, good low-level turning, and some impressive 0-3km and 0-6km CAPE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think maybe farther south into the mid-Atlantic where low-level lapse rates will be steeper, but the weak mid-level lapse rates will hinder the overall potential. Basically...any svr is isolated as opposed to scattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
