What is the proper soil temp for transplanting your Pumpkins?

Using a probe meat thermometer right now mine measures 70* at 6" deep.

desired would be the same as the temp you have kept the potted plants medium,,"no shock" is a key here

We are still getting daily snow here in the Pacific Northwest. It melts during the day, but our soil temps are quite cold. We require a minimum of six dry days with temps in the 60's in order to prepare the soil for planting. At the present rate, it doesn't look good!
