Dave, the owners of the golf course I work at were at Augusta for the Masters tournament last week.  The day after the tournament was over (last Monday) high was only going to be 55, pretty cold for Augusta, Georgia during April. 

You are close enough (especially if you are retired) to do a u-e and return to Charleston and enjoy that 80 degree temp.  What a great place to visit!  Lots of history to experience in Charleston and golf as well.  Favorite course I have ever played at is on Kiawah Island, the Pete Dye "Ocean" course along the Atlantic.  Rated as the longest course in the U.S. at over 8000 yards from the tips, can't imagine anyone playing from those tees.  I counted myself fortunate to hit 94 , the wind is brutal, it is a different game playing along the ocean.

Yes, Jato really strange weather down South but hopefully now things will be returning to normal for this time of year. I love Charleston too, have family that lives in town and wish I could move there but the inflating cost of housing and my boss who I can't pry out of NC makes me believe I'll only be going for visits. At least there are a couple campgrounds close to town to stay and a couple are very close to Kiawah.

Leo, hope you are surviving today, from the map looks as though you may be getting some of the residual we got yesterday.  Our pod has been outside for the past couple weeks and one can hardly even tell it is there,  totally covered in thick heavy snow with about 4 foot drifts around it.  Now we are getting more snow and sleet.  24 degrees and heavy duty sleet, everything is covered in ice that is nearly 3/4" thick.  Will probably lose power so we have stored up a bunch of water just in case, heat no problem . . . lots of firewood to keep the stove going. Many trees and branches breaking from the sheer weight of yesterdays snow 14" + and with now the weight of the sleet on top.  Fun, fun in northern Michigan.

Went out Thursday morning, temps in the 70's.  Friday temps reached high 70's.  Cut short our outing and came home Saturday in blizzard conditions, first rain, then a little hail and sleet and then blowing snow!  
It's wonderful living on the Great Plains of Nebraska!  (It explains why the pioneers kept moving west.)

Looking like Spring is finally coming to the north country this week.
Predicting temps in the 60's by this weekend.
