Spring time weather finally

[littleone25]

Mother nature seems to be trying to get nicer, although today not so great snow wind rain. Got to love michigan, tee shirts to winter coats in a 24hr period.

We just had hail here in Ottawa 😑

A frost warning for tonight, 80s predicted for Friday.

Will be a peak at 19 C tomorrow, with a 12 C low, both are t-shirt weather, but it might be windy, and then 12 C might be a bit cold. 

Either way, I will be hiking.

April and Michigan.  Just like death and taxes, you can be sure it will be nice in the 60's one day and down in the 30's and 40's the next.  It's supposed to get down to 33 degrees tonight and Friday is supposed to be as high as 75 degrees.  Back to 50's for Sunday.

Here at 26 degrees latitude south of the equator, I've just started wearing a t-shirt to bed as well as my nappy.  A couple of nights have recently dipped just below 20C (68F) for the first time since last October.

I suspect in another month or so, I won't be running the bedroom ceiling fan overnight.  I don't like winter so much 😧

For us in July, an overnight low of 9C is not unusual but during the day it would be 21 - 22C and usually sunny.  Winter is our "dry" season.  Even so, at 12C, we'll always have our "snow gear" on (ie: long pants and maybe even socks) 🤣

Here in southern AZ we had our first 100F day last Friday.   Set a record for earliest day.  Now we're more seasonal, 80's and 90's.

I heard it said (by someone from Michigan) that Michigan has 2 seasons;    Winter and road construction.

It warmed up a little bit my way. But it was also windy and rainy. 😑 I'm not ready for it to be super hot and summer, but I'm so over the very cold temps and wearing a winter coat. At least the flowers are blooming. And roadwork season is well underway. 😡 Why actually fix the potholes nice and even with the rest of the road when you (general you) can just dump a blob of cement and instead of a big hole, make a big bump that people still have to avoid. 🤦‍♀️

I measured 19.6 C (67,3 F) outside in the shade of my garden yesterday. The highest this year so far.

That is Illinois for you.  Heck it could snow a week from now.

Hey road construction is an Illinois thing.  Michigan can't take that from us.  Why, Maywood IL roads have been under construction since I was six years old.

Definitely spring weather here.   Had a frost advisory this morning... now in the 60's.   And just finished the first mowing of the season.

Lotta commie measurements being used in this topic. Here in PA I prefer freedom units. (The fat electrician, or zip ties n bias plies would agree) i mowed last week right before it hit the 20s again. And I'm mowing today in the sunshine. I refabricated my disc to be three point mounted instead of drag, hauling them to a friend for his garden. Tis the season to get prepping for them gardens ladies n gents. Can't wait to be outside working shirtless soon! I gotta hand it to you more northerners, you can take the cold in stride.
