May (Gray?) is just 2 days away.

I cut the lawn for the 2nd time this season yesterday, with all the rain we have gotten it had grown a lot. The overnight low here in my yard was 48 and at 8AM it is cloudy and 50. Today looks to be mostly cloudy with a high in the mid 50’s there could be some showers. Tonight, could see some clearing and lows in the mid 30’s. The colder temperatures start tomorrow with highs in the low 50’s and lows in the low 30’s. There is a good chance of frost and freezing temperatures at night on Friday. Highs will be only in the upper 40’s to low 50’s at best. It should be a little warmer at the start of next week with temperatures nearer to average. The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 61/47 there was a trace of rainfall. The highest wind gust was 36 MPH out of the SW. Some weather conditions reported were light rain and fog. For today the average H/L is 64/43 the record high is 90 set in 1899 that is also the record high for the month of April at Grand Rapids.

The wettest was 2.53” in 1909 and that day also had the most snowfall of 2.2” for what must have been a very nasty April day.
