I'm not saying it won't, but the models continue to overdo the intensity of cold shots time and time again, so I'm a bit skeptical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its nice to be back at the time of the year where a "cold" shot still leaves us in the upper 50's for highs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Snow showers moving through today. Already seen a few flakes early this morning. More convective stuff slated for the afternoon. Could see a little white on the grass, if I get hit good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, seasonal weekend on tap but should see a fair amount of sun by tomorrow afternoon and Sunday. All in all, not bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here across N MN yesterday, NWS DLH forecast, on a storyboard, highs around 39-45, and it ended up being 35-40. Happens regularly that forecasts, even on the day, are high/low balled.
