April 5 in Highland runs cool, with an average high of 54° and low of 34° across 72 years of records. The date has seen some wild swings though — a balmy 76° in 2005 and a bitter 18° low back in 1995. There's a 36% chance of rain today, but snow is essentially off the table.
Highland's weather has real teeth on both ends — the thermometer has hit 103° in August and plunged to -27° in January, a 130-degree range that earns its Midwest stripes.
