There was a May heatwave in 1934 that brought 110 temperatures to Missouri and 112 in Minnesota. City records for May include 108 in Waterloo, IA and 106 in Minneapolis. Now it’s a rare day in May when the same places reach 90 with all this global warming going on.
90 degrees in Minnesota in May:

I guess you are agreeing with Andy that it is a weather rare event caused by a deep depression of the Jet Stream pulling warm moist air from the gulf that far north in front of the low pressure system causing severe thunder storms.
