Warmer temperatures where art thou?

OK...enough of this already! Unfortunately, we apparently have not yet had enough, at least according to Mother Nature. I just checked out the long range models for the next two weeks and sadness has befallen me. Looks like we are going to remain below normal.

The problem we have had this weekend is that a nice cold Canadian HIGH pressure system is located to our northwest and has been pumping lots cold air over the Great Lakes. These morning lows in the mid-teens are really annoying.

Daytime high temperatures this coming week will start to trend upwards beginning mid-week, but in general we will remain below our weekly average high. I am seeing some hope for the first week of April. It looks like we could finally get up close to normal for daytime highs.  For the record, the normal daytime high during the first week of April is in the mid 50s. I can live with that, but don't bet the farm just yet.

Oh, remember last year?  If not, here's how we started off April:

April 1st - High 79
April 2nd - High 82
April 3rd - High 80

Ah...if we could only re-live those days again.  :-)

Stay warm!
