As this spring system moves east into Minnesota, we are expecting periods of rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow and ice before it moves out Friday. Right now, though, it’s 59 degrees and partly sunny here.

Only 16F (-8.8C) for the daytime high today with flurries continuing into the night. We may get an inch of snow when it's over. The wind has been gusting into the 30 mph range so its like powder and blows off the road. West camera image.

Very pretty. Is this unusual for you at this time of year?

No it's not rare enough. It snows once every four years. This is for the last 20 years which we have data.

Today we cracked 70 F for the first time since Oct. 9th, 2019 (181 days). Spring is springing and all the social distancing will be tough to maintain.

Some nasty weather coming to the southern states tomorrow.
I hate hearing the term long distance grounded tornadoes.
Could be bad.

Picked up 6 inches out of it. It started 10 pm last night with bands moving out of SW and is just winding down so 9 hrs of snow.
Back deck since snow stake camera was retired for the season due to not wanting to kill the green grass under snowboard.

I knew we were getting snow-so I put down early season pre-emerge crabgrass preventer.

Snow will melt fast.

It's not too early, is it? I was wondering we have had some very warm days high 70's then a bunch of freezing cold down to 7f. Worried I might put it down too early. I found this online so guess I need to watch the temperatures. I really need to treat this lawn bad for crabgrass this year:

Crabgrass typically germinates when soil temperatures reach 62 degrees Fahrenheit at a depth of 1 or 2 inches. Crabgrass preventer should be applied when soil temperatures reach 50 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If you apply the herbicide too early in the spring, it may break down before the end of the germination cycle.

I figured it was 70 the other day and 25 today...

ave 55.

I have gone too early and too late. ugh. didnt take a soil temp
But I have seen some dandelions emerging in others yards. So I figured it was a good time.

ValentineWeather · « **Reply #67 on:** April 12, 2020, 02:31:37 PM »

I suppose I'll don an N95 mask

and head to the hardware store and pick some up soon. Don't want to be late for sure. Not much you can do once it goes to seed.

And so it seems to be coming to fruition, the watch is a PDS as well. Heads up folks...

FREEZE WARNING. Down to an unusual 30 tonight for here. For a typical spring, the last freeze is during the first week of April.

What my FB friend Emily Sutton posted, a meteorologist for KFOR-OKC:

SNOW IN APRIL?
What we know:
*Snow is possible Monday night/Tuesday morning
*Models do not agree on placement
*Ground temps are warm so most of it won’t stick.
*Milk and bread are already off the shelves because of the pandemic so no need to get it?

Stay tuned for updates - is it a winter storm? No, it’s just nuts that we are even talking about snow in mid-April in Oklahoma!

Oklahoma counties in dark blue affect by Monday morning freeze warning:

Getting a cool wet spring in Flagstaff
been one of the mildest winters and the snow pack has dwindled down to almost nothing
expecting a dry summer
keeping fingers crossed for low forest fires. I say low because there has never been a season with out a few to too many in Arizona.

chief-david · « **Reply #71 on:** April 13, 2020, 03:28:10 PM »

Snowing again. 3-4 inches on the ground. 60 by Saturday.

ValentineWeather · « **Reply #72 on:** April 13, 2020, 04:05:37 PM »
