Sedona Snow - May 23rd - A Record

 

Will This Be Our Coldest May?

There were huge flakes lasting 5 minutes. The temp was 34º a little after dawn right here in Soldiers Pass West Sedona. This is the coolest May we have seen since 2015. No other year since 2010 has had a mean temp this low.

 

Crazy Stats for May 2019

Some crazy stats for May - Last year on May 23rd it was 88º - This Year 42º! Last year the rain total was .31 inches - This year 2 inches of rain so far. The average temp is 7º lower than last year and also lower than April of 2018 by 1º!

Last year, there were 43 days over 80º in April and May. This year 11 days. 15 of those days last year were 90º or more. This year...only 1 day hit 90º!

 

Cooler Weather is Good News!

We are very thankful for this cooler weather. Though it is very unusual, it is also welcomed.  Of course, we have to be prepared that all of a sudden a light switch will be flipped and it will be 90º.  We are not taking this weather for granted and know that any time now, things will get back to normal.....(I think!).

Hi James Dray - This was very freak and jaw-dropping!  By the end of the day, it had reached 57º.  I am enjoying this cooler weather during a time when it can be very warm.

Thank you Amanda S. Davidson - I learned a little trick, you can speed up (or slow down) some of these tracks to match the action. Many times the music does not even sound the same.

Hi Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD - I get it (from afar). LOL!  Thank you for the feature. Because of our warm weather this time of year, we really appreciate the break. This was just the right temp 34º, a little after dawn at the coldest point of the day.

Hi Joan Cox - This was so freak.  We have only had light snow in the first week of April one time and about 4 times in March, never in May.  We have a friend in Colorado that is selling his ranch and moving to AZ because he is done with the snow. In 2003, we were at the Marriott in Bachelor's Gulch in CO on Memorial Day and had a couple of inches of snow.  It was so beautiful to see the mountains that way.

Hi Will Hamm - It really depends if the storms continue from the north or monsoon sets in from the south. I anticipate a rainy summer!... But that is normal.

Hi Sheri - no snow reports from most of SoCal but there is higher than average(as of recent years at least) in our mountain areas.  You document the happenings in Sedona so well.  They truly give people a wonderful glimpse of life in your area.

HI Michael Jacobs - There are so many of my clients that are trying to get away from the weather in their area, this really helps them get a better picture of what they can expect year round. Before we bought in Sedona, we visited in all four seasons.

Hi Jeff Dowler, CRS - Amazing!  If my son was still living in So Cal he would still be enjoying that snowboarding! Our local resort was open on Memorial Day and usually has a tough time making it to Easter!
