April 4th in Long Beach tends to be a mild spring day, with highs averaging 71° and virtually no chance of snow. That said, the date has surprised before — temperatures once hit 101° back in 1989, so an unseasonable heat spike isn't unheard of.
Long Beach has seen it all over its 77-year record, from a scorching 111° in September 2010 to a rare freeze at 25° back in January 1963. On the wet side, a single January day in 1956 dumped over 5 inches of rain — a reminder that Southern California's storms can punch well above their weight.
