A look back at April

Welcome to May! 

Hopefully this month will be filled with more sunshine and warmer weather.  So far, it's not looking too promising for this afternoon.  As we set our sights to warmer weather, let's take a look back at the month of April.  After coming off a record breaking March we only managed to break one record during the month of April.  That was for precipitation; 2.26" of rain fell on the 15th of April breaking the old daily rainfall record of 1.21" back in 1999.  Despite the 'cooler' days during the month we did manage to come out a tad above average.  The monthly high temperature was 60.9° which was 0.2° above average.  The average monthly low was 39.0° which was 0.9° above average and the average monthly temperature was only 0.6° above average.

Temperatures this week should rise above average before falling either right at or slightly below for the next week or so.
