It was in the 60's here today. Absolutely amazing day, shame it's going away so quickly.

It has been awesome! It's is +5 and sunny. I've finally been able to open up all the windows in my house and get some air in, and can drive with the windows down again which is great!

It was wonderful! It got up to about 75 here today. After all the snow we had recently, it was nice to leave work early to wash my car, and then sit out on the deck for a while. I even let Ember sit with me until she figured out how to get out of her harness. She's just too darn slippery, so short of cinching it up so tight she can't breathe, she always seems to have enough wiggle room to escape. And she was just starting to get used to wearing it too. Thankfully, I was able to pin her down before she went running off after a bird and got her back inside. Otherwise, she might have been a snack for one of the neighbors' German shepherds.

It's not the Northeast, but we've had great weather the last couple of days in Colorado as well. I've had the top off of the Jeep both yesterday and today.
Actually, Sunday was great, too, but I was up in the mountains where the temperature was only about 30 to 40 degrees. A pretty day even if most of the trails are still closed because of snow.

What are you people talking about? - this is terrible weather! It is going to be another 5 days before I get another clear night!
This is, of course, my fault - I just got a new 80mm apochromatic refractor for guiding/widefield photography. So you're welcome, I guess...

Well, thanks then.
Don't worry, since I just washed my car for the first time all winter, I'm sure it'll rain very soon...or else a large flock of birds will have to follow a migration path directly over my parking space tomorrow.Similar threads
