Selected National Highlights for April 2010

For the month of April the temperature, averaged across the contiguous U.S. was above normal. The generally warm and dry influence of persistent high-pressure areas brought above-normal temperatures to most states east of the Rocky Mountains. Only three states (California, Nevada, and Oregon) had cooler-than-average temperatures.
April precipitation in most areas east of the Mississippi River was below average. Wetness returned to the West Coast, as the Northwest climate region averaged much-above-normal precipitation.
