I think that warm weather is supposed to head our way. That's usually how it goes- weather systems from the midwest jump over the lakes and head up our way. IN winter, we get the snowstorms that hit chicago and detroit- if I see it on the news I think yep, that's headed our way.

It was 20 C here today, about 68f. Normal temp is about 12c or 53f at this time of year. Tomorrow it's supposed to be about 75 f- totally insane. Later in the week, its supposed to cool off to normal. However, I'm planning a nice ride tomorrow!

Don't get too excited folks...we're looking at high 40s for the weekend.

Although I must say that I find it very amusing that it was 90 degrees in Minneapolis yesterday, and yet there were still chunks on ice on the lakes.

Same here- it's supposed to cool down considerably this weekend, but it'll only seem really cold. It'll be normal temps0 in the high 30s or low 40s at night, in the fifties during the day. It's just too warm now. Sleeping last night was no fun- we don't have the AC in yet and it was so stuffy and humid!
