Few tidbits

Meteorologists often don't like quiet stretches of weather since there's not to much to talk about. So this post will contain a hodgepodge of items.

1) We'll start with yesterday's high and low temperatures in the U.S.

5/19 high and low (NWS WPC)

Texas is quite warm right now, and Rio Grande Village reached 113 °F yesterday, while the temperature dipped to 23 °F in the border town of Estcourt Station, Maine.

2) Here's a look at what time the sun is rising and setting right now:

Burlington, VT

Hartford, CT

Sunset: 8:09 PM

Fairbanks, AK

3) Mt. Mansfield snow stake.

The Mt. Mansfield snow stake is currently measuring a snow depth of 48 inches, when average for May 20 is just over 16 inches. So the snow is holding on strong right now!

Let's hope for some activity in the atmosphere so there's some more interesting stuff to talk about!
