That’s how you do this airmass. Might as well get some fun out of it.

My favorite was April 2003... half inch of ice in ALB with significant ZR/IP.  Trees down, no power.  But if you lose power in an icestorm, April is a good time to do it, natural light till like 7:30pm at least.

We had a touch of ice too. I remember tops of trees had a glaze. Couldn’t believe it. Srn CT had that ice in 2016 too that caused damaged in early April.

33.7° F and dense fog. PWS on top of the mountain in Searsburg at 2,800' about 3 miles to my NE is 49° F. Edit: It appears they've now jumped to 54° F.

I had a high of 43.2° F at 12:45 AM and a low of 31.3° F at 1:15 PM. Now that is something you don't see everyday, especially in April. 

I feel like it happens here in April from time to time. Same basic deal as today. We backdoor leaving the high at midnight and then the CAD maxes out midday under a thick overcast.

 Yeah I know we joke but obviously I do hope about the slow. That’s a lot of water LOL. Interesting pattern at least for April anyways. About as miserable as possible down here with drizzle fog and 42F. 

Are you sure 34 and pounding sleet isn’t more miserable?

We mixed out just after sunset. Now sitting at 43.7° F after a high of 46.5° F at 8:21 PM. 

I flew my drone at sunset right before we mixed out. It was 32.7° F and calm at the time with some low level fog, but as soon as I climbed about 250-300' the drone started getting buffeted by a robust west wind. It reminded me of a radiation fog that we see in the valleys around here during the late summer and fall.
