We are supposed to get near 70 today. It has been in the low 60's for the last couple days; however it is over after today with a return back to the 40's by the weekend. It isn't supposed to get any better by next week either.

But OP... the weatherman is never right around here either.

I am happy to report that the sun did come out and I had a doctor appointment at 4 yesterday do I ditched out of work at 3 and got some great sunny day riding in mid 50's weather.
It was very satisfying. TOmorrow and saturday are calling for snow.

Just got back from high country. It was in the low 70's wednesday and thursday, but it snowed Friday. No bike though, as I went with the family. It would have been rough trying to get out of there.
