So far, the weather has been more than unpredictable this year. It has actually been downright strange. Besides the usual early season hailstorms and high winds, this part of the High Plains had 90-degree temperatures during the last week of April and the first week of May.
Even Matthew hasn't seen that kind of early season weather.
