Sunny Day with a Touch of Cloud

The day will start off bright, but clouds may appear as the morning goes on. Temperatures are expected to climb to about 53°F, which will feel a bit warmer at roughly 57°F. At night the low should dip to around 41°F. A gentle wind will blow from the south at about 7 mph, keeping the air breezy. For those heading out in a car, this weather is ideal—clear skies and mild temperatures make for comfortable driving. If you’re prone to sinus headaches, the calm conditions may reduce their intensity and shorten how long they last. Those who enjoy gardening will find the day perfect for mowing lawns, thanks to the dry air and steady breeze.

Pollen watchers should note that ragweed pollen will stay low, but tree pollen could be high. Grass pollen remains at a lower level. Planning outdoor activities around these levels and taking medication if needed can help keep allergies under control. Looking back at history, April 20 in St. Joseph County has seen extremes: the highest recorded temperature was 83°F in 1987, and the lowest was 15°F back in 1897. On average, this day brings a little rain—about 0. 12 inches—and the current high is slightly below the typical 61°F average for this time of year. The low, however, is a bit warmer than the usual 39°F average.
