Apparently even though its 85 degrees here today, winter isn't over yet.  There is a chance of snow in the forecast on Sunday.

Why does this not surprise me?

 

Right - other than the 4 years in Omaha courtesy of the USAF, I've been in MN for 49 years.

Still waiting for full open water on Tonka - shot of Cook's Bay when I was on an errand this morning.

We are skipping spring here in VA.

Ran AC all week, finding mushrooms, lakes are turning over and bass are hitting top water.

We’ve got cool mornings in the 40s and 50s and warm evening sun. But all the old timers will still say we didnt get a spring even tho we’ve had one for multiple weeks already 

[MN Fisher]

Ah yes, lovely April weather we're having.

Winter is still going strong here.

Looks like you got a bit more than me...maybe an inch in my backyard...

[12poundbass]

Yay, that’ll be here tomorrow! Thankfully it’ll be a rain snow mix and it won’t stick because it’s been too warm.

Dang really?! Seems like we skipped spring and went right to temps in the 80s while you guys are still in winter. What weird weather.

Worse part?

 

3 days ago we were at 88 for the official high and my yard was totally clear of snow.

Oh wow so you guys got the heat wave that we did. Next week is back to more spring like weather but nothing cold enough for snow. 

[12poundbass]

Yup, lower 80’s for three days. Tomorrow high of 38 and lows in the mid 20’s.

Pretty typical - a day or two after we get something, either you or @A-Jay or both get it.

It was warm here this past week. Several days in the 80’s. A massive change occurred yesterday, it was an all day rain out and overnight it changed to snow.

 

The ducks, robins, and buds on the trees are very confused this morning.

Just saw where the governor of Michigan declared a state of emergency to 2 counties in the UP of Michigan.  Seems warm temps and snow melt have caused severe flooding.

The red river is still iced over other than the dam spillway where i see people fishing for walleye spawn.

I am pretty sure that Duluth surpassed their all time record too.  As of 7pm last night, they were at 135.1 inches, and their all time record is 135.4 inches.  They have official records back to 1941 at the Duluth airport.

We're WAYYYY under the average at 41"
