http://bestsmileys.com/surprised/1.gif (broken link) Those diurnal temp ranges are desert like!
I checked the forecast up in San Antonio and it looks like they'll be dealing with highs in the 60s... lows in the 40s/50s on Sunday and Monday. Good thing I'm staying well south...
South Padre Island will be in the 70s with lows in the 60s
I've seen that in central NC, in February:
Sunrise it'd be 25 F warming up to 58 F by afternoon.
Or another day with 35 F at sunrise, at 70 F midday, cooling back to 59 F 20 minutes before sunset, back down to low 50's F minutes after sunset, and back under 45 F about 1-2 hours after sunset.
I think what helps cause this is extremely light to no winds, very clear sky conditions day and night, perhaps a very strong high pressure as well as fast draining soil, so the ground is nearly bone dry everywhere for at least a few days.
*Looks like San Antonio is getting some of the "cold" that were getting, since I hear your coldest monthly high is about 62 F.
(Toronto's Easter forecast is just as cold as our average Christmas weather)

oh yeah, that my freind is called "radiational cooling".
to ColdCanadian:
i remember once we had for days that were like this:
Tues:70/18(strong cold front swept through)
Wed: 29/14(snowing much of the day)
Thurs: 55/17(strong sunshine, clear skies).
Fri:25/8(snow, then clear skies throughout the night.)
Botev, this is not right. Seattle should not have the same weather as SoCal. It's 69* and partly cloudy with 47% humidity and 13mph winds.
what are you talking about. It's 86F in LA and 80F in SD. When it is hot in LA then it is warm in Seattle
