A glorious +10 and +11 for the weekend with no going under 0 at night. I might ride outside! :shock:

Rain, sleet and snow for the past 12 straight days, for a total of 5.6" of water. Sometimes storms just park themselves halfway offshore and halfway on land, dragging more moisture in off the Gulf Stream. Late winter / early springtime in New England. :cry:

Thank goodness it's been just barely warm enough that it was mostly melted, or we'd have been totally socked in...

This weekend it looks like there will be no rain clouds after two straight (weekends) of rain. That also means I'll be having a hard time keeping in contact with the pack :(

Emerged from the dank, dark cave this morning, blinking in confusion. Why is it so bright outside? What is that golden orb in the sky? Why is it so hot (55F)? And where did I pack away my shorts?

Cyclists have come out of the woodwork. I'm not the only one that's been suffering from cabin fever!

Wow! Watch out for floating icebergs! It's about time you get some hint that winter has ended...
Just because you can't see around the corner, doesn't mean it's not the top of the hill.

Yeah, well, winter's not over yet. I wouldn't be surprised to get another foot of snow in the next month. :| After all, the groundhog has spoken...

Mid 50s is Springtime for us northerners! Hope the weather holds up for you, Mashie.

...and for those Canadians, it's time to mop up the igloo... :D

It's raining and I have grass. Hopefully it stays this way now.
