I was just outside in Mitchell County and could feel the temp dropping just standing there. Wild.

Currently have a near 70 degree difference in the state when you factor in wind chill

Pretty potent weather dynamics today/tonight.

Was going to say, this feels like weather that only comes with big storms

The forecasted high for Sunday is 80. That can't be a good sign. The last year it was similar to these Temps this early was 2012 and that was the extreme drought and 100 degree days all July.

We're in deep trouble if we don't start getting some moisture this spring.

Yep! I keep thinking how much like 2012 this feels like. It was in the 80s for what seemed like a week straight during spring break. Hit 90 on April 1st.

Usually, but at least where I am, it doesn't feel humid. Seems like there's not a ton of moisture. Toward Chicago/Indy though looks like they may get some ****.

The beautiful part of never leaving the house and having a 4 foot commute is I don't give a **** about the weather

The beginning of the end for VEISHEA? If I remember right there was a stretch of years with fabulous weather during VEISHEA.

The temperature at my house in CR dropped 6 degrees in the last 20 minutes. (It may have been worse, I didn’t look until I saw it was 64 and then all of a sudden it’s 58.)
