April 26th, Diamond Bar, CA: no hotter than 75, if you please. I don’t want to shvitz through my dress when I’m getting married.

Don’t get your hopes up, we still have May.

Oh. Oh yeah. I almost forgot about May. But in the meantime I’ll settle for a short-term forecast for [clear skies.](http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?zoneid=COZ018)

Seriously, the snow tires don’t come off until June 1.

ETA: It’s dumping again. What are you playing at, **Winston**?
