We had 85 degrees fahrenheit one day, and an inch of snow the next (3 in higher elevations). I thought it was a freak thing happening in my neck of the woods, but if the location you have listed is correct, then it's a problem half way across the world too...weird. It's not completely unheard of though, the last time it happened here was 1929.

How about a low of 34 degrees in Dallas, TX in May? Now that's something

That's crazy! It's Spring here where the Sun is out, it's warm and windy. That's why I love California weather. No snow! The rain is terrible though.

We had the same thing here in Minnesota. In fact, the snow just today and yesterday finally melted away. We went right from winter to summer this year! Minnesota broke all it's prior records for snowfall for April, and one of the snowiest on record for the year, but all of this snow came between Feb and late April. One snowstorm after another, over the course of 3 weeks we had 5 major snowstorms blow through....crazy stuff!
