After downpours Friday, it cleared Saturday and we warmed into the mid-60s. Easter was pleasant, just a tad cooler at 63, which is the average high temperature for mid-April. Monday was warmer ahead of a weak cold front. We got to 67 in Vancouver.
While it was raining all day north of Clark County Monday, precipitation moved south, with light rain around the evening commute. This moisture will hang around today with widely scattered showers ending tonight.
Wednesday through the weekend looks nice with a slight chance of showers Friday through Sunday in Western Washington. It could remain dry locally until later Sunday. I have said before April is a standalone month. It doesn’t conform to expectations. A month with a mind of its own. This has been noted through history. Here is a collection of these observations.
T.S. Elliot: “April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring spring roots with rain.”
