Weather Journal April 1, 2026

From the Fairbanks Museum in St. John'sbury, this is the eye on the Sky Weather Journal.

The sun rose this morning at 6.31, setting at 7.17 this evening, length of the day, 12 hours

and 46 minutes.

The heaviest snow from a long storm lasting four days started off the month of April

on this date in 1807 when it was over the deepest snow cover ever noted was reported in

some locations, including Randolph Vermont, four feet lay in the open, six feet in the

woods, five feet of snow was on the ground in Danville, Vermont, and four and a half

feet in Loonenberg, Vermont.

Nearly 200 years later in 2001, similar amounts were reported.

Of course not the case this year as mile weather has had the upper hand, although there

is a weather front stalled across the region.

Northern sections will see temperatures in the upper 30s and 40s, it'll be in the 50s

and 60s south of Route 4, but temperatures there will be falling this afternoon.
