April Weather Summary
April averaged cool with well distributed rains. Although averaging
cool, there were a number of short, mild periods but no outstanding
warm or cold spells. The snowfall was heavy in higher mountain region
on Ist and 6th. On Mount Mitchell snow remained on the ground of
•3 to 43 inches through February, March and until the 23rd of April,
f Rather cool weather and well distributed precipition resulted in a
gradual and good to excellent advance of rye, wheat, oats, clover,
pastures, potatoes, hardy truck and fruit. Forests show luxuriant growth
over large areas and the season to date has been very favorable also for
lawns and flower gardens, but hemperature was mostly too low for a
satisfactory start of tender truck and cotton. Progress of the latter crops
has been slow with planting delayed one to two weeks.
