It Finally Feels Like Spring!
Apr. 14th, 2025 01:38 pmIt finally feels like spring! That struck me today on my first full day back home after traveling in Georgia all last week. I've remarked before that being away for a week often makes gradual changes, like changing seasons, seem sudden. It's warm outside, with a forecast high of 79° today, it's sunny, and the air smells fresh.
Today's warm weather is more than just an accumulation of gradual changes, though. It's unseasonably warm. My weather app says it's 14° above the average high for April 14. I find that a bit surprising. If you'd asked me what's normal weather for mid- April around here I would've said "About 70". But apparently it's as likely to have a high of just 60 as to reach 70. 🤷
Well, these feelings of spring are only going to last for another day or so. The weather forecast calls for cooler and cloudy weather the next few days. But it looks like it might be warmer again by next weekend. Imagine that— a weekend of nice weather, when I'm here to enjoy it!
