Last Monday: high of 73.
Monday night: Snow.
Today: high of 70.
Tonight: Snow.
This is not so much spring as 'the weather can't decide whether it's winter or summer.' "Let's just flip a coin every 12 hours, okay? Okay."

Date: 2014-03-16 11:51 am (UTC)Spearfish holds the world record for the fastest recorded temperature change. On January 22, 1943 at about 7:30 a.m. MST, the temperature in Spearfish was −4°F (−20°C). The Chinook wind picked up speed rapidly, and two minutes later (7:32 a.m.) the temperature was +45°F (+7°C) above zero. The 49°F (27°C) rise in two minutes set a world record that still holds. By 9:00 a.m., the temperature had risen to 54°F (12°C). Suddenly, the chinook died down and the temperature tumbled back to −4°F (−20°C). The 58°F (32°C) drop took only 27 minutes.[16][17] The sudden change in temperatures caused glass windows to crack and windshields to instantly frost over.
