What's Up with Alexandria weather?

Paula Hanson wants to know.

Stan,
Just a short note to say "thanks" to all of our classmates that sent me
information regarding donating furniture etc. from my Dad's storage.
All of the information was very helpful and we were able to give away almost everything, with only a small load having to go to the dump. We spent last Saturday in Alex sorting things and moving them.

What is up with the weather in Alex? It was a high of 45 degrees on Saturday with a strong wind. We thought if we waited until the end of May it might actually be warm, but we were wrong.

FYI my Dad is now living at Knute Nelson Home and doing well.
Thanks Again,
Paula Hanson

(By the way, the dramatic photo above wasn't taken any where near Alex. It was sent to the blog by Jeanne Pearson, I think, after Katrina blew through the heartland. TB)
