SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) As the first full week of April began across the United States, the weather was marked by a battle between winter in the Northwest as frigid air swept in behind a storm, and summer across the Plains as temperatures soared to record-setting levels.
The dividing line between this tug-of-war match was drawn by a storm system that moved out across the central Plains on Tuesday.
Ahead of the storm, temperatures across the center of the country surged Monday. Highs reached into the upper 70s F and 80s F from New Mexico, Texas and Louisiana to South Dakota, Minnesota, and Wisconsin and a few locations even topped 90 F for the first time since last summer or autumn.
