What April feels like
April is the sweet spot for the Foothills before the grass browns off, and the arrowleaf balsamroot lights the hillsides yellow for a couple of weeks. Showers pass through, but they pass — this is not a place where rain settles in and stays.
Expect about 4 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy. about 5 nights dip below freezing.
