We’re set to warm up into the weekend after a fair share of chilly days. Taking a look at the numbers, the cool weather lately has been nothing unusual, as we only rank in a tie for the 43rd coldest start to April through 11 days. I’m ready for a warm up though! #15Fury https://t.co/MHqe84ZdhZ
It has been great to see the sun today! ☀️ #15Fury
The sunshine to conclude the workweek has been welcome after the gloomy midweek days... In fact, we have only seen 24 percent of the possible sunshine for the month of April so far. The good news is a lot of sun is coming on Saturday. Details at https://t.co/KXHPTVBz6x. #15Fury https://t.co/HmPfG5H1UI
I spy a few snowflakes out there 👀❄️ A good evening to stay inside, as numerous rain/snow showers move through. I’ll take warmer weather over mixed precipitation and cold air anytime in April…don’t worry, it’s on its way soon. #INwx https://t.co/0XMV6mPviP
