April 7, 2025 Monday Weather Update

Much cooler week ahead with mostly dry conditions

What the month did

April 2025 was the 16th-warmest April in the 132-year national record (1895–2026), at 53.6°F against a 1991–2020 normal of 51.8°F (+1.7°F).

April 2025 was the 31st-wettest April in the 132-year national record (1895–2026), at 2.9in against a 1991–2020 normal of 2.7in (+0.2in).

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.

We’re finally saying goodbye to this persistent wet pattern with the atmospheric river unloading enormous rainfall amounts across the mid-Mississippi River Valley with Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee and Kentucky all being flooded. Cloud cover will take a while to clear across the Southeast but soon drying and sunshine.

Total rainfall in the last 7-days has large area of 8-10” from NE Texas into Memphis and to Cincinnati.
