What April feels like
April is when the melt starts and the falls get loud, while the trails above the Valley rim stay snowbound and the passes stay shut. Dogwoods bloom along the Merced toward the end of the month — the signal regulars watch for.
Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. about 6 nights dip below freezing.
