...April averages 14 above-freezing Lows, and in 2026 we only got 6. That's the fewest since 2013.
Sometimes April starts off really cold, like -21°C in 2020 & -18°C in 2020. While 2026 wasn't warm, its coldest Low was only -8.5°C.

...April 2026 actually had 3 Highs get to 20°C, when we average 2.
But April also averages 16 10°C Highs, and we only got 11.
It had 2 below-freezing Highs, which is typical. But one was in the final week. Recently only 2013, 2008 & 2005 got that cold, that late.
