I know that most places in North America are just cookin' right now! Maybe this will be fun:

Without leaving the contiguous United States, where has there been frost on 5 mornings so far this month!?!??

It is the same location that will see 28F Saturday morning, according to Accuweather. The Weather Service is only predicting 33 and WeatherUnderground has them at 36 so we can see which is correct. Will they have . . . another morning with a temperature of 32 or colder?!!?

(BTW - no service has snow in the forecast for that location ;).)

My house! Not really, I don't think there's been actual frost for 5 days, but it's definitely felt like fall to me the past few mornings.
My sister called this morning and was describing the heat they're having (MO ), she wasn't sympathetic that I had to put on a sweatshirt. Hmmm... normally she's a very compassionate person too....

I know, Thistle'.

My son in San Antonio this month thinks I'm bragging . . .

I'm not giving up on summer! Still thinking of this as good weather, for May!

Good guess, V!

The weather service doesn't have all the preliminary info for the month yet for Jackson Hole, WY which is often the coldest of the "official" WY communities but lows in the 40's are all they are expecting. It has also been mostly in the 80's there this month.

Lake Yellowstone has only had 1 morning of frost, early in the month.

Beautiful, yet cool. I've never been to Wy, but I think it would be a good summer vacation spot for me. :)

Especially when its going to hit 100 with heat index of 108 today! :hit

I knew that, Heather!

I looked around at Kalispell and Missoula before I started this thread.

On a side note (and outside the contiguous states), Barrow has only had 2 days and Nome, Alaska has only had ONE day with frost in July.

Buy me a plane ticket, I wanna go visit! We are up to 95 degrees today, which doesn't sound like much, until you add our typical 68% WV humidity.

The weather guy says it "feels like" 113. I am finding lots of inside things to do today...
