| episode_narrative | An unseasonably cold air mass from Canada moved across the Delmarva Peninsula from April 9th through the 11th. A cold front moved through the region during the night of the 8th and ushered in this unseasonably cold air mass. The high pressure system at the center of it reached the Great Lakes the morning of the 10th and the Middle Atlantic Coast the morning of the 11th. Southwest winds around this high then modified the air mass and returned temperatures closer to seasonal levels. Low temperatures those three mornings were below the freezing mark in most areas. Unseasonably warm weather for most of late February and March preceding this cold spell had plants blooming ahead of schedule and some of the vegetation susceptible to the cold was damaged. The coldest morning was the 10th. Low temperatures that morning included 22F in Georgetown, 24F in Odessa, 26F at the New Castle County Airport, 28F in Bridgeville, 30F in Camden, 31F in Pennyhill and 32F in Lewes. |
