Spring Waxing Seed Moon
Weather guy in the Star-Tribune tried to cheer us with the news that at no time in April has the temperature fallen below zero since record keeping began. Only in Minnesota would that be seen as a good thing, or maybe better, something you’d need to know. April!
Today has a bright morning sun, clear blue skies and well below freezing weather. This is the same kind of weather we had for a good long while back in February although the temperatures were colder. The mulch in my garden still has ice, but the ground is clear. Another cool week ahead of us.
Those of us in Anoka County might find the Rum overflowing this week, at least according to NOAA:
.DAY ONE…TODAY AND TONIGHT FLOODING IS OCCURRING OR EXPECTED ALONG MANY RIVERS AND STREAMS ACROSS CENTRAL AND WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA…PARTICULARLY THE MINNESOTA AND MISSISSIPPI RIVERS AND THEIR TRIBUTARIES. REFER TO THE LATEST FLOOD WARNINGS…STATEMENTS AND OUTLOOKS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
