April 5, 2024 Warming into Weekend

Severe weather chance in central Plains from developing storm system

What the month did

April 2024 was the 15th-warmest April in the 132-year national record (1895–2026), at 53.6°F against a 1991–2020 normal of 51.8°F (+1.8°F).

NOAA/NCEI Climate at a Glance, contiguous United States. This is the observed record for the month, not a score of anything said in this piece — the forecast ledger begins 2026-08-17 and cannot reach earlier posts.

The Northeast finally says goodbye to the Nor’easter and hopefully winter weather for the next few months — until probably October.

A storm system develops over Nebraska and Wyoming on Saturday with a chance of severe weather along the warm front.
