What April feels like

Patios open on faith the first afternoon it hits shirtsleeve weather, and half the tables fill with people who will regret it by six. Twins home openers at Target Field are a coin flip between glorious and miserable, and locals dress for the second one.

Winter is doing its thing: 3.5 in of snow in a typical April, with fresh snow on about 2 days. about 9 nights dip below freezing.
