We topped out at 51 degrees in the Twin Cities today. It’s the warmest we’ve been since April 6, but nowhere near our average high of 61. Our snowcover is rapidly melting, but additional snow is expected late Monday. Keep the faith....our spring greenup can’t be far away.
The snowstorm of last Thursday and Thursday night was impressive, especially for April. Here are some snowstorm totals, which were posted last Friday by the Chanhassen office of the National Weather Service:
