Crazy isn't it? So much for the Gulf waters warming.

Well... we were supposed to make it to 72 with afternoon sun.
NOT
Cloudy, dreary and dark with drizzle all day. Like the dead of winter. Only managed 64(where we sat all night as well).

Tell me about it... I NEVER thought I'd be using a coat on April 30th... which I did for a little while. We don't have the wind though(yet) so it wasn't as bad.
We also had to crank up the heat in the car for a little while!

Yeah, even way up here in Toronto, Canada... it was 6C 42F for most of the day with cold north winds, bleak overcast skies and intermittent light rain, had a raw feel to the day, almost (dare I say it) winter-like. I saw my own breath at 2pm outside, thats how cold it was!
Normal highs this time of the year are nearer 16C 60F.
But it was good for the movie theater business, it was plenty crowded today. Good weather to catch a good movie.
