When El Nino is developing, it tends to be wetter. I would not be surprised if May is wet and stormy.

May and October are our wetter months. So, I'll go with wetter.

I'm not going to link it to El Nino, because the last one completely turned off the spigot.

Alaska stays warm from May 1 to at least May 13. Great news for us in Texas as milder weather prevails.

The best chance of rain is at the beginning of May.

Alaska had one of the coldest winters on record. They can give us some cooler weather. 8-)

Each state benefits! Minnesota as we know had a very cold winter.

As we jump into May and Hurricane season soon, I would like everyone to have this; if you don't already know about it.

It is a link that provides the weather forecast but with the Retro Weather Channel look and music. Just put in your zip code and it updates to your location.


Oh and remember to unmute the sound.
